Hi All,

This is my first foray into speaker building and I think I picked a bit of a tough one. After three iterations I finally got a decent result.

I order the seas drivers and crossover gear from madisound in the states:



Constructed the internal mould for the speaker cabinet using styrofoam, just to make it easy to gouge it out at the end I wrapped the main piece in clingfilm:



missing from this pic is the internal piece for the connection terminal

Then I shoved the port tube in the back of the big piece of styrofoam and assembled the mould:



After a couple of days of drying I pulled it out:



and after a bit of sanding, painting and crossover assembly, I put the whole thing together:



I still have to build a set of stands for them, which will have to be pretty strong as the speakers weigh about 45-50 kilos a pop, as well as that I have to give them another coat of paint and put the crossover into a protective box.

As regards the sound, will know a heck of a lot better when I manage to put them on proper stands and position them correctly, but other than those obvious problems of context, they sound fantastic.

I had the idea of sticking a set of casters on the bottom of the stands that I build, any opinions on whether that would be a good idea or not?

Thanks,

Nathan
