    Value of commercial vs. DIY

    Well... as someone who struggled with this question for some time, I'd like to weigh in. I'm currently in the process of building a DIY design from speakerbuilder.net (I'm building the PeeCreek). For a long time, I struggled with the idea of building a published design/kit vs. just buying...

    Show off your sub!!!

    ? for Anthomy Gomez - I love the look of those speakers. Could you tell me more about the finish? I'm guessing truck bed liner on the front, but what is that on the sides? Veneered mdf? or solid hardwood? What type of wood? Thanks, Mike

    Harman Kardon Speakers - Anyone heard them?

    JackS - I guess I'm looking to see if anyone knows generally where Harman Kardon speakers fit compared to JBL (which seems to be pretty popular hear). The Harman Kardon speakers look nice, and seem to be pretty cheaply priced (5.1 setup's on ebay for ~300, which would be a great deal if the...

    Hi everbody, I was looking around at the specials on harmanaudio.com and I noticed some interesting speakers, the HKTW 6 towers. I couldn't find any reviews of these speakers (or any of the harman kardon labelled speakers for that matter), so I was wondering if anyone on here has heard them...

    Recommend me a sub to go with the SCH K05B50

    Since I know a lot of people here seem to have built the K05B50 (which I am really considering building), I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a good sub to go with them. The sub could be DIY or bought whole, just as long as it is inexpensive (ie ~$100-150). I was thinking about...

    Anyone use these speakers without a sub? What do they sound like by themselves?

    Getting into DIY

    Okay, so I'm thinking of trying to build a set of speakers. I've never done anything like this before, and I don't have access to a lot of tools. I'd be willing to purchase some basics (ie soldering iron, wood glue, clamps, etc... maybe a dremel), but I live in an an apartment and am on a fixed...

    A question re: onkyo hts650....

    Okay, I've seen that you all are pretty fond of the Onkyo HTS - 650. But I've noticed that you can get just the speakers for around $250. By buying the speakers and pairing them with an inexpensive reciever (say the sherwood RD6108 ~ $130 or the panasonic HE70 ~$180), you could get a...

    You may want to check harmanaudio.com also. They sometimes have a very similar looking speaker for $150/each.
