    Diagonal port arrangement - cool idea

    Ok, they've probably patented it but has anyone noticed the new Klipsch sub with the port diagonally in the box? It's the most obvious cheat to get lots of length without bending the port, can't believe I never thought of it. They run the port from one corner (more or less) to the other corner...

    AV15 slot loaded design

    Has anyone seriously considered a slot-loaded design for the AV15? It seems to help with the tuning issues and I can't see the downside. Of course, it does not get the response flat to 20hz like PR would, but PR is not an option and I want to try this anyway. gross internal volume 7ft^3 /...

    Holtmods digital pcm output for cld-d505 help

    Has anyone attempted the holtmods pcm digital coax/toslink mod on a pioneer cld-d505 player? The instructions reference the 504 player and the connection to get at the digital stream is different (or appears to be) on the 505. Has anyone done this or have a service manual handy for the 505...

    Subwoofer grills

    I am approaching completion of the 15.2 cube and am stuck on the grills. My plan for a wire mesh is not working out, but I still want some protection from the little dissasemblers. I could easily integrate some 'waffle' style grills, but wonder if they have any impact on the sound. I have...

    Polyurethane Glue Tips?

    How do you control the expanding glop when you're glueing the finish surface of a cabinet? Do you just apply the glue very carefully and try to not get it on the finish, or sand it off, use a solvent such as min. spirits? What works here? With yellow glue, you have to be careful since the...

    Free-Air HE15

    Just for S&G I hooked the HE15 with NO box to my amp with the HE15 coils in series and the amp bridged mono. I thought I'd flex the suspension a little, and didn't expect much in the way of bass. Wow was I surprised. The room shook so much I had to reassure myself that I did indeed disconnect...

    Well, a K2 would be even better, but... The Crest CA9: -800w x 2 into 4ohms from 20hz-20khz this also is about the linear max power, so a good match -damping 700:1 into 8ohms from 10hz-400hz -cooled by two variable speed fans @45cfm each fans idle at low speed when not needed -price...

    Ashly FET-2000 amp - suitable for HE15?

    Vince Maskeeper if you're out there... I have read your praise of the Ashly FTX-2001 and wondered if you thought as well of the FET-2000. The biggest difference I can see is the damping factor is about 100 vs. 300 for the FTX. Any comments on the suitablity of the FET for driving an HE15...

    9ply Golden Virola ply from HD

    Found at HD today some very clean, A-A plywood called golden virola. It's 9 ply, very low voids, although some small ones, but looking at the 2'x4' cut up pieces, it is very low void for off-the-shelf plywood. Also with 9 plys, the voids are small where present. This seems very comparable to...

    A/C Fir ply for 2-ply sub cabinet?

    The stryke has entered the building. Holy cow, if you ever needed inspiration for a project, this thing is it! No one has even slightly exaggerated the build of this thing!!! I am planning a modified version of John's cabinet that has grill cover for all drivers. It will still be 1.5" thick...
