Hi Troels,
Been playing on them for a couple of days now. Sound is full and
detailed and sounds fairly holographic with good recordings. Want to get
another couple if weeks on them for acclimatization/softening of speaker
surrounds before critical listening sessions.
The bass output is impressive for the size and midrange seems ideal for
electric guitars. Being a metal head it's really nice to listen to music
that normally shred my ears but now sounds acceptable.
Can't help to wonder what a 5" midrange would have sounded like in these
- perhaps I'll look into the Audiotechnology or SB Acoustics classic
3-ways when next urge to build hits me. I do still have a BB plywood 21
mm sheet left from this build..
Regarding the build the kit from Jantzen was straight forward. A minor
comment could be that adding 1 m silver wire for black and red would be
useful - adding another 10-20 Euros wouldn't matter and spare us less
experienced the problem of finding out that the mid cab wires are 5 cm
too short in final stage of assembly :)
The rest of the build was straight forward but I quickly came to realize
the importance of high quality table saw. The Bosch GTS 10 XC I bought
for this build is just not good enough in standard guise for long
straight cuts so the money I'll spend on getting it to cut and measure
perfect should've been spent on a higher quality Axminster saw instead.
Attached is a pic of the speakers - not sure what finish I'll end up
with. Likely I'll pant them white - I'll send a picture of that if you
want to use on your site.
Looking forward to read about your upcoming projects in 2021. Let's hope
this year will be better for all of us.
Thanks for your help through the build
Regards
Pontus
