Hi,
I'm considering what speakers to get for HT. We're also trying to get our backyard done. The less I spend on HT, the more I can spend on my backyard, which the wife would like for sure.
It appears that DIY speakers are a lot cheaper. But I'm wondering what skills are needed. I don't have a workshop in the garage or anything, so I would need something fairly prefab.
Would I need to buy a soldering iron? Last time I used a soldering iron was pretty much in an electronics class in high school.
Are DIY speakers pretty simple, or should I stick to pre-built ones?
FYI, I've built a few computers from parts, which is mostly just putting parts together and installing the O/S and drivers.
