A couple of years ago we were building some maple A/V-2's for one of Danny's customers but had some problems with the stain. So we built new cabinets for the customer and my dad kept these and just painted them black. He also built a matching center with shielded drivers. Now he is wanting...

I'm selling off my Sherwood Newcastle R-945MKII receiver. It has DD/DTS processing and is rated at 100Wx5 into an 8 ohm load. It can also handle 4 ohm loads with no problem. I have the remote, owner's manual, and original box. Original price was $1200, I'm asking $300 + shipping.

I thought I'd share some response curves of my Tumult subwoofer. I've got the Tumult in a 53L enclosure (18" cube, 1.5" thick walls) with an LT circuit and a single channel of a Crown K2 amp. These measurements were taken using my Stryke Bass Zone test disk and the Radio Shack analog SPL meter...

Just thought I'd let everyone know (especially those still waiting) that my 3rd and final Tumult has arrived today. So hopefully Adire has gotten pretty much caught up on orders.

Here's one of a pair of GR Research Diluceo cabinets that we just finished in a faux gray marble finish for a customer. http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/g...eo_3.sized.jpg

Guys, I got the following email from Dan Wiggins this evening:

I just thought I'd share a picture of my finished Tumult enclosure. Rather than retype the entire description of it, I'll just link to the page on my website. So without further ado, just click here!

OK guys! Here are my A/V-1+'s in cherry veneer with a semi-gloss polyurethane finish! Just click Link Removed!

I thought I'd post this here instead of the for sale section so that more of you DIY guys would see it. We have 3 pairs of A/V-1 enclosures in raw MDF that we'd like to sell. They are all the slightly smaller enclosures that give a 60Hz F3 instead of the 55Hz F3 that Danny specifies for the...

Well since Dustin said that I "suck" and Rob pleaded with Dan to get me my FREE Adire Audio LCC kit which I WON from a contest on another forum so that I would finally shut up I just wanted to let you two guys know that it arrived yesterday! NYA NYA NYA NYA NYA! :) I looked through the parts...

Guys, Here are some more GR Research cabinet pics. They are A/V-1+ cabinets in maple veneer with red mahogany dye and A/V-1 cabinets in oak veneer with jet black dye. The A/V-1+ pics came out very dark and I had to play with them a bit to get them to look decent. The pics really don't do...

I thought I'd share some pictures of a pair of GR Research Paradox 1 cabinets I built for a customer. They are wrapped in cherry veneer and stained with red mahogany dye. The flash really brings out the red, but in person they're a deep reddish brown color. They look very similar to an antique...

I've seen the question come up several times without any answer given concerning a rumble filter when the amp is modified to flat response. I also had a customer asking about this, so I called PE yesterday evening to get an answer. Apparently there is still a 2nd order filter centered at 15Hz...

OK, Jeff Lam has been on me to provide a comparative review of my GR Research AV-1's vs. my ACI Emeralds. I sat down for about an hour and compared the two using my Dave Matthews Band "Under the Table and Dreaming" CD. I would have used more material but this was sufficient to choose which I...

There's a dealer selling 3 B-stock Crown K2's on ebay for $1149. It sounds like a decent deal but what do I know. Anyway, I just wanted to alert everyone. They were on there last week and and the auction ended with 0 bids. This auction has two days left on it so I imagine if you put in the...

The K2 has 2 input sensitivity levels. One is a 1.4V input which the manual says should be used for "full rated output" and a 26dB setting for "fixed voltage gain". Which of the two of these should I use? I'll be feeding both channels a mono signal from my subwoofer output and using the amp...

So now everyone can get off my back (Jeff)! I finished them up late last night so I really didn't get much listening time. It was 9pm so I just threw in my Sarah McLachlan CD and listened for a few minutes to a few tracks. I noticed that vocals are truly sweet, even without any break-in...

I just thought I'd share some pictures of the GR Research AV1 cabinets I built. The speakers aren't complete yet but the cabinets themselves are done. Danny Richie liked the look so much I think this is how we'll be offering the finished enclosures that he'll be selling to his customers...

Hello Everyone, I know this truly belongs in the Hardware for Sale forum but I thought it would be more appropriate to post it in the DIY forum since this falls into the DIY arena. Since finding out that the K05B41 kits were out of stock and being discontinued, I decided I'd sell the kit that...

Patrick Sun contacted me earlier this week to inquire if I'd be interested a small 15" length of 24" sonotube he had lying around. Of course, I jumped on it! I stopped by last night to pick it up and also had the opportunity to briefly audition his DIY speakers. Let me tell you, I was VERY...

That's right! The Merle band clamps are on sale again! You can pick up two of these for $44.95 (regularly $39.95 each)! Click here for more info! Brian

Hi guys, I received my 100' of Canare L5-CFB (RG6 cable), 20 RCAP-C5F RCA connectors, 200' of 1/4" techflex, 25' of 1/2" heatshrink, the Canare crimp die, and Canare TS-100E cable stripper. So last night I decided to put together my first cable. Here are a couple of pics of the 3' cable I put...

I'm about to start a small business with my Dad and need to find someone to host a website. Do any of you guys have any leads for me? Initially I'm looking for good service and CHEAP prices. In the future I may be adding an online store so folks can make purchases directly over the 'net...

Well, I haven't built the box yet, but I received my first digital camera today so I thought I'd share a few pictures of the 1803. This first one is the driver in the box: Link Removed This next one is the 1803 sitting next to my 70lb. "woofer" for reference: Link Removed This is the side...

I'm looking for some really cheap plate amps for a small 8" sub. I'd like to find something with about 50-80 watts in the $50-$60 range. I've looked at the offerings from Apex Jr. but really am not interested in close out products. Can anyone steer me towards something cheap? BTW, this is...

John, And everyone else, here's the new ACI speakers including the new Jaguar LE's with their Low Frequency Modules! http://www.audioc.com/speakers/prelim.htm Brian

OK, guys! I know that you can get a general idea of Xmax from the voice coil length and the air gap length but I don't have my copy of the LDC handy. Can someone post the little formula? Thanks, Brian

OK, for all you guys that aren't afraid of thinking "inside the box" the Merle Band Clamps are on sale again! They are regularly $39.95 each but are on sale for $26.95 each or $45.00 for two. That's damn near half price! The last time they were on sale I bought 4 so get to ordering...

OK, Jack suggested and I agree that we should start a new thread specifically about this driver and possible applications for it. Jack and I both received ours yesterday and I think I can speak for Jack when I say we are quite impressed with the build quality and massive size! We have...

I was playing with the Linkwitz Transform spreadsheet last night and came up with a few questions. What should the value of "k" be on the spreadsheet? I noticed that it defaults to 1 and that it says k>0 but I don't know what it's really for. There doesn't seem to be any reference to it in...
