Hi Steve

I hope to take them to Eggborough. I've got them running in the workroom with the radio playing non-stop to run them in. I'll measure them when theyve had a few hours running and if they measure up I'll post the design and bring them along to eggfest.

so far so good.......they're VERY LOUD

Regards

Ed

Hi Steve

I'm not going to listen until they've done a couple of hundred hours in solitary, and then run them thru CLIO to see whats going on........I'm thinking they've turned out bigger than expected...

Hi Paul

French polish, wax and hard work...I'll publish a full description in due course.

Regards

Ed

Hey Ed,

I reckon these speakers look so good they have to be another candidate for the website if you fancy joining Simon in the hall of fame.

These speakers are an excellent design, and have the best 'classic' TQWT response I've ever seen. Look great too. If anyone wants to run a large FR driver, but don't have space for a horn, this is one of the best places I can think of to start. I ran some sims in MathCad, which tally very closely with the Clio measurements. Which tells us a) Martin's MathCad worksheets are their usual, frighteningly accurate selves, and b) that this enclosure actually provides a better in-room response than some well known cabinets I could mention. For the minimal cost you're laughing.
