Hi Troels,
Check out my Daughters Christmas Present, Revelator-51’s.
Over the late summer I was staring at an extra piece of 25mm Baltic
birch and after some quick calculations I determined I had enough for
the Rev-51 (I did make them deeper to account for the thicker wood). I
went about building them and then when my daughter moved into her new
apartment, I realized these would be perfect for her smaller family
room, so I continued the build, which was an easy one, then I finished
them in a retro color I know she likes and also built some matching
stands if she needs them.
I have them setup in the garage, I added a subwoofer crossed at 70hz
just to add a little fullness to the bottom end, threw a Bluesound
Powernode to get her started and WOW, I love these speakers, those 5”
mid-woofers have a beautiful sound (natural, detailed, and so easy to
listen to), they integrate seamlessly with the tweeter. My daughter
loves 70’s rock and country (thus the sub) and this setup will be
perfect for her.
I noticed not many people writing about these speakers, they should give
them a try, they are relatively inexpensive, easy to build, sound
wonderful, perfect as a family gift to introduce the younger guys to
some refined music, they can even be put on a shelf and maybe get wife
acceptance in a main family room. These are a great addition to the
family. Now my other daughter wants me to build her a pair of speakers
for her apartment, gotta think about my next project now.
Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I really do appreciate all your designs, I
have now built the bookshelfs, the seas center channel, fatial 3wc-15,
3wc-10's and now these. I would never have been able to enjoy music like
I do now if I had to buy any of these, I'm not a rich guy.
My family has become fans of quality music, just 2 days ago I have the
fatial 10's playing christmas music in the family room and the wife sat
down for 2 hours and just listened quietly, probably never heard better
music in her life with all those big orchestras in the background and
the doris day's, frank sinatra's, dean martin's all with their wonderful
voices. Those fatial 10's are perfect for our family room/kitchen, we
listen to them in the morning over coffee every weekend for a few hours.
Your work has made my life better, thank you,
have a wonderful holiday
