I am looking to build speakers for a new 7.1 system I am assembling. I worked professional as a furniture and casework maker for more than 15 years and have a shop full of professional tools. (Any design isn’t too complicated to build for me.) I also have always been doing something with electronics (ham & shortwave radio, car stereo, professional sound reinforcement, and home theater.) I currently work as a network and systems engineer. My dad also was big in electronics and we built many Heathkit things over the years including speakers.
OK, back on topic…
I know that speaker design is very complex and I am not looking to reinvent the wheel. I just need a good set of solid designs that I can build and enjoy. The room is 14 ½’ X 27’. I plan on getting a nice receiver that will be capable of 110 to 135 watts per 7 channels. I don’t know about the sub power yet.
Also, I might be willing to work with someone wanting to have me build a second set for them to help off-set my costs. (I would be starting sometime in September all pending on the sale of my current home and having the cash to get the new gear.)
