How's your project going? I was just out in my garage today building some clones of the P.E. .5 ft^3 enclosures (starting with three pairs today) to build both some "Kepler inspired" speakers and some similar (same enclosure, vent, tweeter) speakers with a different woofer - Peerless HDS Nomex 6.5" 830875.

Instead of the Peerless HDS tweeter though, I will use the Dayton RS28F tweeters.

So far, I've got the boards cut and one pair glued. Will need to measure and design my own crossover as I'm using the different tweeter, but I may look to the one Kevin designed for the Kepler and see how it works / if I like it, before doing my own from scratch.

EDIT: Did you fix your broken inductor? Could probably use Super Glue and a vice... I wind my own inductors myself.

If you're not working from your own measurements then you'll want to read Jay Kim's web page about simulation using "traced" measurements here: http://www.geocities.com/woove99/Spkrbldg/DesigningXO.htm

I plan on ordering some Anarchy woofers and I do have some 27TDFC tweeters. I will measure the woofer - I could measure the tweeter, but I might not have time to make a baffle with a cutout for the 27TDFC (wife complains a lot when I try to go to the garage to work on speakers :blink: :hissyfit: ) I will be making baffles with cutouts for the RS28, off hand, I don't recall how close of a fit the 27TDFC is in an RS28 cutout...

Would you build your own cabinets? What size baffle? (The .5 cu foot cabinets from Parts Express that Kevin uses have 8.5" x 14" baffles).

Ah, cool to see that he's taking orders for the woofers now!
