Hello once again, I am looking to build a pair of book shelf speakers. I would like them to be as full as possible because i will not be using a subwoofer. It is going to be stereo only. The reicever that i will be using is the NAD C352. Does anyone have any suggestions? They will be used for...

I changed the driver out this noon and no more strange sound. It definitly was the driver. How often do you get bad drivers? Oh well, the speakers sound amazing, so full and beautiful! :):D

That is what I planned on doing tonight, i am hoping it is the driver because i have no idea what it would be wrong with the crossover wiring, i double checked it a few times and all looked well.

I have a quick question. I built wayne J's veritas and started to use them last week. One of my Mid drivers seems to be making a a funny noise. During play it is not as clear as the other mid range driver. There seems to be a bit of a raspy sound to it. Would this be because of something not...

I am now starting to look at building an infinite baffle. From the sounds of it if you can do it build one.

Matt, what i am going to do is using my flush triming bit on my rotozip to cut out the inner hole and then switch to a 1/4 trim bit and get as close as i can to the sides of the outer diamater hole by just working slowly with my rotozip. After that i will sand the edges to get super close. I...

Thanks Darren, i read that cherry darkens over time so i was thinking about just putting a protective finish over it.

Thanks Patrick that is what i thought. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a goof on the drawing.

I have a quick question on the crossover schematic for this speaker. The diagram for the tweeter crossover says the positive reciver input should go to the negative speaker input. Is this correct? I imagine it has something to do with the phase of the ribbon tweeter.

Has anyone stained Cherry veneer? I heard that cherry can be some what problematic. I searched on the internet and a site reccomend to use amber shellac. Does this sound right to everyone? Also i have one problem, i used the jasper jig to route my holes, and then i veneered. All of my drivers...

Would all of these designs blow my svs out of the water?

I think people are taking this thread the wrong way. Building speakers is a hobby of mine so i do not account for the time or labor at all. I enjoy doing it. So there is no sub out there right now for around 700 dollars in parts not including wood that would blow the doors off of my current sub...

The DIY bug has bitten me and has done it hard. Right now i own a SVS PCI 20-39. I am happy with this sub but i feel like there has to be something better out there. The sub is used mainly for Hometheater but when I through parties it is used for music. The room size is fairly large, 20 x 30 or...

I am building Wayne J's Veritas. It says to do polyfill by the woofers but nothing about lining the cabinet. I always though it should be done because you want a always want a dead cainet.

Thanks for the answers but i need to be more specific. The cabinet i built is sealed. SHould i still line the sides with an egg crate type of material? I was wondering if it is a gereral rule that with all MDF cabinets you should like the insides with some type of material.

One easy question for all, should i line the inside of my speaker cabinets with a foam type material such as Black hole 5? Do you do this with all speaker boxes? I am building some fronts and before i glue the last side on i would like to line the insed while everythign is easy to get at. They...

For an SPL reading i would like something of THX certification. I think that deals with SPL. I was looking at Line Arrays and i am pretty impressed by them. Does anyone know of a cheaper pair i could build? I am willing to spend 600 a speaker for them, board and finishing not included in th e...

The budget would be for two speakers. The room is probably 15' by 25-30'. I want a full range speaker. The listening area is probably around 10-14 feet away. I would love to build a speaker that will amaze people. I have built wayne J's HT sorrounds and i am almost finished with a pair of...

Hello everyone Can any of you suggest a tower speaker used for music? I have been looking at building the GR av3 but I am open to many suggestions. In my opinion the bigger the better. I know it is not always the case but sometimes the bigger they are the nicer they look. I am looking to spend...

Thanks alot Aaron, i think i will finish building my Cabinets and then see where i go from there. Meniscus audio is like 20 miles from my house if i decide to use their inductor. It just that parts express is the only place i could find that type of inductor and they keep on pushing back the...

Well what i am doing is building the Wyane J verias Speakers. I am fairly new at this and do not understand all of the technical jargon at this point. I am learning though. If you could take a look at the crossover http://www.partsexpress.com/projectshowcase/veritas.htm would it be alright to...

So what do you think is a better option, to go with the 2.2mh or get the 14 gage 2.0mh Perfect Layer Inductor

Hello all, I was wondering if it would be alright to subsitute the 2.0mH 14 GA. PERFECT LAYER INDUCTOR from the ERSE SUPER Q 2.0mH 16 GA 500W INDUCTOR. Could you for see any problems with this? Partsexpress does not know when they will be getting more of the ERSE inductor in. I could bump it up...

You have to love the money tree! :) ;) :D

Eric, dude you totally are awesome. Thanks for the heads up!!! To bad I already own an SVS sub and i love it!

Could anyone reccomend a kit for Hometheater mains? It will be 90% Hometheater and 10% music. I am looking for Floor standing towers to be used with a Denon 3802 with a Klipsh RC-7 center.

The comma is a period.

Hello everyone, i was wondering if anyone could give me a review of the following speakers, the veritas and Gravity research AV3's. What do you think abou them? What would someone recommend for a home theater speaker?

Sorry I think it is a 616 or a 618

Does anyone know if the Jasper jig works with the dewalt 606 or 660 router? I know they mention dewalt but the models that are mentioned are old and no longer sold.
