Dali Concept 6 - Crossover & Re-Wire Project

[Carson]

Given the success of the modification made to my Caiman DAC, and the general feedback from people regarding upgraded Crossover caps. I decided to take on another small project.

Completely re-wiring my Dali Concept 6 speakers and building a pair of brand new cross overs for them also.

What follows are some pretty pictures of stages through this venture :eyebrows:

Parts Used:

Mundorf Air Coil Inductors
Claritycap SA Capacitors
Mills Resistors
Ixos 6006 Gamma Cabling (Previously used speaker cable)


The parts all ready to be assembled...

I've only had them installed in the speakers for an hour or so thus far, so cannot properly comment on the sonic improvements. Though, I have noticed more spatial awareness and a greater depth of detail so far.
Happy Days :eek:

Nice one. I like well-designed tag strip builds. Where did you get the inductors from? Wilmslow? The cable looks like Kimber?

Why thank you :)

All of the parts minus the cable were sources from http://www.hificollective.co.uk/
