Just completed the rack today. It swivel a little bit side to side. So, I'll put a cross bar in the back to make it steady. Total cost around $130 +/- $20 Here are some pictures: This thing is tall. It's 60 inches high yet I wish it was taller because it didnt fit all my equipments. I...
Inspired by the rack that Bret Miles did. thread I'd like to build one. Does any one have a detail Bill of Material (BOM) to build one. I'm getting ready to order but don't know what nuts and bolts I need. Also a more detail picture or instructions would be nice. Thanks
Would 14awg speaker cable good enough for 50ft rear surround speakers? Thanks I remember seeing a chart with gauge recommendation for certain lenghts. Anyone has that?
I bought this crimper on Ebay. The seller claims it's a Paladin 1300. But I've compare it with the Paladin 1300 image and it doesn't look like it. It looks closer to the Canare TC-1 crimper to me. So any of you who owns either one can tell me which crimper this is so I can buy the proper die...
My Pioneer Elite vsx-45tx has been running fine but yesterday when I was watching The Punisher in Digital EX (6 channel) it started powering off at high volume (around -20). Its been running fine up to -12 level with 5.1 Digital Dolby. Although I don't have the rear center hooked up the display...
I would like to finish my Eros with Tung oil, but I also want the toughness of polyutherane. So I'm thinking of putting 1 coat of Tung oil and then a few coats of polyutherane on top. Is there anything wrong with doing this? The cabinet exterior is of 1/8 pre-veneer mdf which I got from...
Went to local cabinet shop and he only carries LDF for his cabinets. It's really light. He says that it is as strong as MDF. So is there downside to using this stuff?
I'm looking at getting veneer from constantines but the website doesn't say whether it is 10mil paper back or 2ply or NBL. But I assume it's 10mil due to the low price. Is this correct? Another question: Has anyone use this type of veneer before? => Padauk Veneer Does it look close to what...
To all the DIY pros out there who've had experience with both of these, please give your thoughts and comments in comparison to these two speakers. GR A/V 3 Assuming the A/V 3 with the Sonocap upgrade. Eros MKII I'm particularly looking for the following info: 1) Describe the...
I have Tempest sealed mid-Q with a Rythmik amp feeding from a Pioneer Elete 45tx. I've heard alot about how BFD and Parametric EQ can improve sound quality of my bass. Being a newbie that I am, I'd like to know if and how it can help me with my setup. I've notice the BFD sells for around $120...
Some guy by the name of auctionstorm is practically giving away these cables for $5 each (buy it now) + $10 shipping. I have no association with this seller - just bought a 15' sub cable from him and thought it's unbelievably cheap.
I swaped my receiver from an old Kenwood 1080VR to my new Pioneer Elete 45TX and I noticed noise humming from the sub. So I messed around with the volume and the higher the sub volumne the louder the noise. I finally swapped the sub cable from the ATS Gold (bought from accessories4less to my...
I'd finally completed my DIY Tempest sub project. I'm using the Rythmikaudio 350w amp. I find that when the amp is plugged into the power outlet it makes a humming noise. Not very loud but audible at close range (less than 1 foot away). Is this typical or is there a problem? Note: I've tried...
I bought these banana plugs and it turned out not as intuitive to use as I thought it would. http://www.impactacoustics.com/produ...=301&sku=29782 Is there a picture illustrating the proper install method?
I have a question regarding stuffing the Sealed tempest mid Q with Polyfill. The Adire application notes suggest stuffing it with 32 onces. So my question is does it need to be glued to the side walls? or just throw the polyfill in the box and don't worry about where it land?
