:!: http://www.esdacoustics.com/index.php/product.html http://www.goodsoundclub.com/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?PageIndex=1&postID=24831#24831 I'm still digesting the horn design details, a lot to take in....tractrix, exponential and hyperbolic all in the mix together :shock: The carbon bling is very ...

If we are short of easy listening speakers I can bring my A12p single driver coffins along on Sunday. They've been before, but if there are no other single driver speakers coming they might make an interesting reference point. I've also got the much easier to transport micro-fonkens :) I should have...

On a slightly different track, I'd really like the chance to listen to some of the many headphone amps that folks have. I'm planning on replacing my 'vintage' class a sand amp (the one from the WAD diy supplement in the early 90's) at some point and it would be great to get to audition a few of the ...

I'm a fan of the 6c33, but its a tricky beast to drive. I've never tried them with an aikido front end, been on my list to do for a long while now. I messed around with a few variations on a c3g driven stage, and that just wasn't up to the job. You need something that can swing both voltage and curr...

SimonC - might be of interest - I'm having difficulty contacting you on email, so if you read this, here's something useful on the coupling-chamber volume for the FE208Ez. http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/full-range/318518-dallas-ii-build-9.html#post5387703 Thanks :) I'm here and lurking. Sorry about...

Sat late PM/eve and Sunday for me please

Not quite as aesthetically challenging as that rug though...

Good work on the speakers our Thomas, nice to see you venturing into the world of speaker building

I have a pair of FF105WK's that might be sold some time. They have a spike around 7kHz that is a bit annoying if you sit on-axis to them. Aside from that, or if you use them a bit off-axis, the mid & treble tone is very good - slightly better than the 103e's. The 103e's are better on-axis thoug...

Wait to the Velominati find out about thus!

The Yorkshire edition is filled with ice
As a bonus it makes a nice toast rack when you stop for a cuppa.

I fell in love with Andrew I's 45 P-P amp (the purple one) and its on my bucket list for building a 45 something one day.... I'm watching this with interest, esp as its got FX120's in the mix.

I think I've found my winter bike

I use senny HD650 for home (on a hifi world class A SE sand amp if anybody remembers those...) and AKG Y50's for on the move. The Y50's are wired, not blue tooth as thats the way I roll. Both are great value in their own way, and you won't go far wrong with HD650's if you can pick up a pair on sale ...

Hi Ed, My experience has been with an Epilog Mini 24. The one I use has a 50W laser, and this will cut through 3mm ply and 6mm acrylic with ease. These are the main materials I work in so I've not pushed it to see what the limit is. Its also awesome for cutting cardboard once you get the hang of the...
