Hello from down under!


Hey everyone!

I think I've lurked long enough, and I didn't want my first post to be about the subwoofer I recently built (that will be my second past )

Brief about me:
Electrician by trade but currently working in pneumatics. Been into things electrical and electronic since being aged in the single digits! From a musical family, used to play the organ (used to because I can't fit mine in the house we're at!) and did a few stints on the sound desk and setup at school functions and performances (almost a decade ago now!)

Why I'm here:
As my brief probably indicated, I have an interest in sound, sound systems, and home theatre After deciding that the tiny speakers that came with my All-In-1 Panasonic system were....tiny, especially with the new sub, I'm now researching as much as I can find to build a set of speakers for surround and music, including crossovers, Zobels, driver arrangement, etc etc. Plan is for a set of mains that will keep up with the sub, a centre that will keep up with the mains, and surrounds that will just keep up, either through number or sheer size And then of course all the gadgets to follow

Cya's around!

Scott

Welcome Scott. I grew up with a Hammond organ in our front room, always wanted to know why Mom had to hold one switch down, then release it when the sound came on!! Have fun, Dennis
