I joined a few weeks back, but have been traveling since via Singapore and London and am still on the road in Colorado.
I am resurrecting an avid technical interest in audio, mostly dormant since BC (before children), which tranlsates to 30+ years. My first project is to restore my Sonab OA-5 Type 2 (Mk II) clones from the early 70's. Thankfully, the Swedish designer Stig Carlsson's early work is relativley well documented on the CarlssonPlanet website, but the original drivers (Philips 9710 8" fullrange) and tweeters (4 x Peerless MT20HFC 2") are no longer available. As my units are well and truly shot, I am now researching substitutes and will have to re-design the crossovers.
That's it for now. I look forward to learning how to use the software that's around these days, especially REW.
