Hi Guy's, Im a complete beginner who wants to build a set of 3way speakers as a present for my sons up coming 18th. I want to build them from the ground up. In the research I have done, I see the greatest challange being designing & building the 3w XO, as I am a carpenter and not an electrical engineer. Can you please give me some advice on where I should look to get easy to understand info on the subject. I will me using Peerless speakers, as they are what I can afford & are obtainable here in Oz.

Hmmm, seems like the challenge is at least as big as I thought, probably bigger, what's life without a challange. I'll look for a pre made cross over for the Peerless, I can get a 2 way from a locally made kit, but from all the info Ive read so far a 3W is my goal.

Thanks

Danger all right, you know what they say about a little bit of knowledge (it's a dangerous thing) I am not working towards a 5.1, the 3w is strictly for music, maybe a sub later to deeper the base.

My latest thought re crossover, is to get Madisound to design it for me, I have sent them an email to see if they ship speakers etc to Oz

Any body have any thoughts on good speaker combos Im looking to spend about $600.00 US on the speakers T,M,W?
