It's not much of an investment to play with.
(2)
Audax HP170M0 6-1/2" Paper Cone Woofer ($26)
(2)
Tang Band W1-1070SE 1" Full Range Driver ($22)
(2)
47uF capacitors ($2)
(2)
0.7mH inductors ($8)
(2)
Binding posts (I love these ones but they are overkill, $12)
(2) 40 inch long 6" Schedule 40 PVC pipes ($30 for one 10' piece)
I used two cans of Rustoleum stone textured paint which was another splurge, ($16)
About $5 worth of Acoustafill.
The wire and what MDF is needed most DIYers will have lying around.
So, my pair is $121. I'm sure one can use other componants - my selection was mainly governed by what I had lying around. Also, these are easy to build ported or sealed if one prefers.
A friend of mine said these remind him of the
GR-Research AV-0's. I'll take that as a compliment. Had I planned these out I might have used the Dayton 7" reference woofer and a higher order x-over. As it is, I'm pretty happy with these.
