Well it is time to put this latest project to bed.

My initial impressions of this project is that it isn't the best thing I've ever built. But I will give the drivers time to break in. I might also play around with differing amounts of damping material in the full range drivers' enclosure.

The sound is a little hollow sounding in the midrange, possibly a little adjustment to the crossovers are needed.

Here are some photos of said speakers.

I'm not disappointed but not raving about these yet.

Time will tell.

Have a great day you all!

James,

No I haven't swapped them side for side yet, I shall in the morning.
My wife gets pretty irritated when I crank the music above 95 db in the evening.

But I did stumble into a very meaningful upgrade in my sound.

I was moping around cursing the very idea of these speakers or the ridiculous idea that I could even build speakers to begin with, when it occurred to me that my JRiver software has a equalizer inside of it.
A couple minutes of button pushing later, I had found the equalizer and had added a little "chest" that was missing from vocals.
Things are much much better now, enough so that I put away the lighter fluid that I was going to use to set them on fire.
Though sometimes a good sacrificial burning makes things right, tonight isn't going to be that night.
