| The most fun you can have in audio is DIYing your own speakers I agree 100%. Especially your DIY speakers sound the same or better than many high $$ speakers. I built mine using SEAS drivers and xover pieces from Madisound, cabinets from Parts Express, stands from Dynaudio (Stand 20). They sound amazing.here... | |
| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES @jmarini2...I agree. Or build the house entirely from carbon fiber!!:-) | |
| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES Possibilities are endless:How about replacing your 12-3 nomex from the panel to the receptacle with some exotic wire? Maybe the circuit breaker itself on the dedicated line should be replaced with a high end breaker.Also, isolating (not touching t... | |
| Interconnects and non-believers If a better cable (whether it’s interconnects or speaker or power cable) provides better sound (or at least perceived sound/notes/frequencies) then the difference should be positively (scientifically) measurable. If its not positively measurable,... | |
| Notable very small loudspeaker companies (other than Tekton!) I am thinking about getting into providing very good sounding small speakers for very acceptable prices. Once I fully finish these, I think I am going to offer couple variations of them. https://youtu.be/C8fwA3nPNls | |

| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" Thanks prof,I took that youtube video with my iphone. The Susan Wong song was being played on youtube (ipad) and the amp was a $100 basic Sony unit. There were no high end components anywhere - except, of course, speakers and the crossovers.I li... | |
| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" @erik_squires Completely agree. Sometimes DIY hifi is more satisfying than buying equipment. Especially your DIY actually comes close to purchased equipment.My own:https://youtu.be/C8fwA3nPNls | |
| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" @ozzy62 not complaining at all. I am just enjoying the comedy show that initially started on Nov 2016..:-) | |
| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" @rlb61 I never intended to say that you paid too much or anything in those lines. I am sorry if my posts sounded that way.Everybody has different way of looking at things. And some things can not be measured in dollars. I am just happy that I can ... | |

| New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening" I built very similar speakers myself using SEAS drivers. I made my own baffles using 1.5” thick solid ash. Cabinets are Parts Express 0.5 cu’ piano black units.I spent quite a bit $$s on crossovers and they are big and therefore external. The soun... | |
