    These look terrific!

    You are on to something. I saw a video on youtube of a similar speaker build and they sounded surprisingly good

    Could I ask for the link to were you purchased the speaker cabinates? I tried to find them on ebay but seemed to have missed.

    Thanks!

    Stuart,
    The guy trades on Ebay as Audioproduct - I know of him because he does plinths for Lencos & things and a friend was thinking of getting one.
    Here's his Ebay shop

    Chris has it, Stuart. Don't be put off by his Moldova address, everything arrived as promised and was very well packed. The cabinets are great value for the money; in fact Wilmslow sell a kit cabinet for the Fostex driver that is more expensive than his ready-made ones.

    These are the cabs: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/speaker-bo...item232685f13c

    I just bought a Samsung S24B350 - and i can say it is great! very happy with it

    Is there any reason you avoided the larger enclosure for the Fostek 206s?

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/speaker-bo...50970167612%26

    Im still considering what secondary speakers to get - though i do see a nice set of Ushers on ebay at the mo - probably hard to beat... have you heard these? Im looking for something with 'low listening fatique' risk ... "

    Just because ' LOADS of people like them ' doesn't mean anything.

    LOADS of people read the Sun newspaper.

    Loads of people wouldn't have it in their house...
