Re: New to the Shack and DIY....Need some help


I'm not sure I totally agree.. I think starting with an estabished kit is sort of a 'gateway' drug to full DIY addiction. A kit, to me, is also a little like training wheel.. you do learn about the issues about building/designing speakers. I started with a kit. I'm currently working on an active system and I'm now beginning to think about a new design with it's own passive crossover. In other words, each project is a step in my learning curve to understanding all the various issues about designing my own speakers.

So, I can understand the reticence about going with a proven design, but I think it's really only the first step towards an addiction.
