Hey Guys, We have all spoken here of the three front speakers and what we think of a good, clear, defined front array. What do you suggest for the two rears? I am leaning toward a pair of AV-1's. How much stock or importance do you put in the rear speakers matching or complimenting the...

Danny or Hank, If the AV-3 rolls off at about 45-50 and the AV-3S rolls off about 80, how much bass would I lose in a typical HT setup? I do not know how much bass, ratio wise, is created by the two fronts vs the center channel, in what we will call, average 5.1 movie sound tracks. My...

Hank, I think you have done exactly what I wish to do. I spoke to Danny at GR and asked him a few questions about his new M-130-16 drivers. My question was how would they match up with his GR-T1 tweeter. He said just fine. Sounds like you are happy with this combination. My goal is to make...

My cost for the blown JBL PB-12 is about $50.00. There are one or two of these on Ebay at any given time. When I read comments posted at the audioreview sight, it is plain to see that JBL PB-12's pop caps and smoke other bits and pieces, on a regular basis. Opinion has it that JBL messed up...

I have a chance to pickup a JBL PB-12 with a fried amp. Is this unit worth the trouble of installing a fresh PE 250w plate amp? Is there another plate amp that may be more suited to a retrofit such as this? Is the box and speaker worthy of this expense and effort? If you were to rank the...

Dan, I just spoke to Dan. Thanks, Dan

Patrick, I took Dan Hine's advice and visited your sight. Nice photo documentation of the speaker cabinet building process. Now I will take Dan Wesnor's advice and call up Dan Richie about 16 ohm drivers. Regards, Dan Miller

This is unbelievable !!!!! Earlier this evening, I started another thread addressed to Dan Wesnor. I told him I would contact Dan Richie. The next thread down was started by Dan Magnin. Now along comes a guy named Dan Hine to post a reply to one of my questions in this thread. It's time...

Al, Can you point me in the general direction of some web sights that show the construction of a few cabinets? Not so much the math but the method. I have stumbled into a few of these sights but I imagine there are more. My guess is that you more experienced guys know just where to go. I...

Allan, Those cabinets are super. Lee Valley is just down the road from me. I get in there about once a month. Next trip and I will pick up that very same stain. What is your method of construction? Are the cabinets MDF with veneer? What veneer? Thanks, Dan Miller

Guys ..... Thanks for your input. I have a few more questions involving speakers in general. Dan Wesnor ...... Thanks for mentioning the GR line of drivers. I will probably go with the M-130/16 for all three front speakers. Maybe GR will help out with some opinion on which of their shielded...

Gee, I wonder if Dan Magnin wants in on this????

Dan Wesnor, I will contact Dan Richie. Thanks, Dan Miller How could I resist ??????

Hello, I wish to build some MTM style of cabinets for HT. All the speakers I have in mind are 8 ohms. This means that I can either wire the mids to show 4 or 16 ohms. My receiver wants to see 8 ohms. I think most crossover schematics, that I have seen, regarding MTM setups, illustrate...

I am considering building a 5.1 speaker system. My idea is to use the Audax AT170MO which is a 6 1/2" speaker. The input rating shows 50 watts RMS / 70 w max. This speaker will be use in conjunction with the Audax tweeter AW025M1 which can take about 70 watts. I will mount one of each, in a...
