Hi all - first of all great site!
I am wanting to build some really low budget speakers
I know that the more I spend, the better the sound and all, but they are only to go in my room at uni and I plan to run them off a vintage NAD amp
I have a few pairs of second hand speakers that I plan to remove from their housing and build a new cabinet around them. Some Kenwood, some Sony and poss some Pioneers.
Now for the Questions ...
- Volume, if the speakers I am planning on converting have a large volume, will I need to match this volume with the speakers I make?
- Does the volume then change the quality of sound? - Will I really notice it not being a huge Audio geek?
- I am guessing many of you like to be able to see the front of the speakers, but does having a fabric cover over the speakers change the quality of sound? or is it just aesthetics?
- and finally (and rather embarrassingly) what is inside a pair of commercially manufactured speakers!?
