I've been looking at these for a while myself. Anyone have any feedback on these: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=299-028 vs the previous model: http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showd...number=299-027 I'm thinking about building a platform for my fouton. Seems to me a...

It seems to me that the tweeters are in their own sealed compartment. I'm guessing that the sealing around the tweeters in this situation would not be as important because of this compartment. I'm just taking a guess here. Edit: Sorry, need to refresh my browser after walking away.

Hey all, I'm building a set of MTMs and I had a quick question regarding Hurricane Nuts. On my sub project (in finishing phase) I didn't use any backer on my hurricane nuts when installing. Unfortunatly, I pulled out two hurricane nuts during the process (when testing the screws). I was using...

Well, I may have gotten some magnets that are too small. What I was thinking is that I would take 3/4 inch particle board and make a couple of ring/round grill covers 1/2"-3/4" wide - rounded on both sides. I was also thinking about lining up about 8 of the small magnet pairs per grill. Would...

I suppose I should've taken a diameter measurement of the driver with the rubber gasket on and then rounded up to the nearest 16th. That would've given me the best appromimation most likely. As it is, I think I am going to do what ThomasW has suggested and move forward without the rings. I...

Hello all, It has been a LOONNGG time since I posted. I finally have enough of a break to try to finish my thunder 12.3 cabinet. A little problem popped up. I cut the drive openings to the specs in the design I recieved from Stryke, but the PR and Subwoofers will not fit in the holes...

Sorry, Yes the box is already built. I suppose I could just trim enough to place a thin veneer strip along the edge. Otherwise you guys are suggesting that I not do it huh? I thought a rabbet bit might keep me steady along the edge with the bearing for support.

or a 3/8" and make 2 passes? wouldn't a 1/2" go too far?

Hello all, Quick question. I want to router out 3/4" on the top and bottom edges of my sub box so I can put 3/4" walnut strips in there. That way the sub will match my mains, oak with walnut strips. Any suggestions on the best way to do this?? Would a 3/4" rabbit bit at a 3/4" depth be the...

Thanks Pete! Have you done roundovers this way? Lata.

What are you guys using for a rumble filter when using a pro amp? I'm looking at the RMX850 for my av12 in a thunder 12.3 cabinet but I'm wondering about the rumble filter/sub-harmonic filter. I might just get the Rythmik. Later

ANy tips/tricks RE: Titebond iron technique? My yard has way too many trees and with the seasons changing crap is in the air. Using the titebond method would allow me to work inside without the fumes (tuckunder garage- fumes get everywhere). Or do you all think I should just try and deal with...

Thanks for the replies guys. Sounds like I'll give the 10ml paper backed a try this time around. It is a sub, and it will be in the corner so if I mess up, it'll be ok. I think I'll try the nbl option on my next project. Again, thanks for the input. I understand that each person will...

Hey all- Well I've finally gotten around to nearly completing my Thunder 12.3 box. (Outer side panels glue tonight) Now I need to think about the finish. I was searching through the threads here and it looks like one of the best places to shop is tapeease.com. Ok, so I'm looking at the...

Ok Dennis, so I just clamp a factory edge on top of the cutt edge and use the flush bit? Looks good to me. Thanks for the tip. I'm guessing a 1/2" collet with a 1" depth would be good. I wonder if I can find something similar locally. Woodcraft Looks like that would trim veneer...
