Good morning Mr.
Gravesen.
I am writing to thank you for providing me (through your web site) with
the design of my Faital 3WC-10 (materials from Jantzen Audio). I have
them up and running and going through the breaking in period. Even at
this stage they are a great improvement on my original 40 year old, DIY.
Kit speakers. From your web site photos you seemed to have lined the
inside with 15mm. plywood. I could only get 18mm. ply so I lined the
inside with that. Yours would have been 35mm thick (20 +15mm.) mine are
18 +18mm. but I doubled the back and front and compensated by increasing
the dimensions slightly to keep the internal Volume the same. I am not
as young as I used to be, and the result was I could not lift them by
myself! I did not have very much faith in my soldering so I decided to
put the crossovers on the back (outside, see photo) where I could get at
them to fix any problems however they seem to be working fine.
My system is only for playing Vinyl records: Linn LP12. MC preamp, into
an old Lentek Amplifier. And then to your new speakers. I have decided
to retire the amp after many long years. And I have on order a
Willsenton R800i.-845. Tube amp. My first Tube amp. Living in the North
of Scotland I do not get the chance to audition equipment so I have to
buy on what I read in reviews, so I hope it is okay. I am buying it from
China and it should be here in a couple of weeks.
Sorry to go on so long, thanks once again for your design and excellent
web site.
Kind regards
Adrian
