    Just like most people I enjoy spending some time outside during the summer. In particular, I like to spend it close to water. Sometimes, I might be fishing, tubing down the river, hanging out on the beach or even swimming. The problem with that, is I also like to listen to music. But really...

    Hi Folks, So I joined this site a while back just to get the REW software. Well, now that I've build my first sub and am looking to do front speaker build figured I'd jump into the mix as I'm sure I'll be asking the good people of this forum for some advise along the way. Just a little bit...

    Using some 500 pound triple wall corrugate, fitted with Vifa A10CC-07 (made for M&K) two way drivers and Eminence Alpha 8 (Parts Express) woofers and a simple 3-way crossovers from Parts Express. They sound better than they have any right too. Actually surprisingly good.

    I recently got a new AVR, so I retired my old one to my office/computer room. I found some old satellite speakers that I have from a few years back (sub and amp for them are long gone) so I pieced together a system with them and the AVR. The speakers themselves use 3" paper cones with solid...

    In an attempt to have my subwoofer reviews be more objective I decided to make time -- you know how that goes -- to learn how my XTZ Room Analyzer II Pro functions. I've read the manual twice now, so I have at least a passing familiarity with all the features (which turned out to be more then I...

  11. DIY Speakers
    I have been reading on here and elsewhere about waveguides. What got me interested in them was noticing many commercial studio monitors have them. I had a pair of old speakers laying around with 2" cone tweeters in them. I never liked the sound of the cone tweeters so I had nothing to lose by...

    Hey all. We're now seeing some fairly significant shifts in the projector world. A few years ago, DLP was considerably more expensive than LCD and now the market has shifted and DLP offers some of the better budget projectors on the market. We're seeing the price of 720p projectors come way...

    There's a radio show that is currently on NPR and podcast called Sound Opinions. It's a fun show to listen to even when the two critics who host the show get a bit too impressed by themselves. But, overall they've done a good job introducing me to music and groups I may not otherwise have...
