These are my latest speakers ‘The Rossendales’. They are a smaller version developed from my Edingdale speakers thread that Ali started over in The Drawing Board D.I.Y. Project s forum pages. As building speakers is now my main occupation in life I now class myself as a Trader so here they are posted.
As I have said they are a smaller version of the larger Edingdales. The initial speakers have been designed by Scott Lindgren and then tweaked/redrafted to their present format by me. Scott is well known on the forums as ‘Scottmoose’ and for his double mouthed horn designs (Woden Designs)and many a design featured on Planet10 web pages.
• Type of enclosure = Vented, 2-way
• Approximate (rounded off) dimensions: = 900mm high x 220mm wide x 350mm deep
• Build material = 18mm Baltic Birch Ply
• Sensitivity = 91dB@1m/w
• Nominal impedance = 8-ohms
• Fb = tuned to 51Hz. F6 is 42Hz, F10 is 38Hz
• Driver compliment = MarkAudio mid-bass units with Monacor ribbon tweeter.
Here’s a couple of photos of my prototypes finished in Zebrano real wood veneer:

Last weekend I and Nick Gorham spent a ‘boys’ weekend up in Scotland at a mate’s whist his wife and kids were away in Spain on holiday. This was the first outing of the speakers and their first public airing as it were.

I just spent a very enjoyable weekend with these little floorstanders, to say I was floored by them would be an understatement, for the size they are excellent they have a dynamic and very balanced sound with a nice solid bass line under pinning the mix.
What's more they look like being very domestically acceptable.
Anyone interested in further details/information/prices of these or wish to audition these speakers, and or any my other offerings, can contact me through this forum. As yet I still don’t have a web site up and running but this will appear in time. For interest we can do one-off builds of any speaker design, and flat pack kits.
