Have fun! It's a truly stellar set of speakers.

Woah, I wasn't familiar with this previously. Badass. Looks like the makings of an excellent weekend!

Heheheh it would be fun and it would be a great weekeng if I wasn't broke as fu k right now cause of this :D
It will be a fun weekend in a week or two :D

Everything here phew

Are you implying that a big muscular black man can't be a better white little girl than a white little girl? Sounds bigoted... (emma would be amazing adult Ciri, but they are looking for a 12yo kid, I was thinking hitgirl)

I was making a reference to her role in Aloha where she played an Asian for some reason.

Didn't know that. That's also really silly, as if there aren't plenty enough capable asian beatiful actressess to pick from. Also, for the role of Ciri, the casting call specifically said they don't want white actresses. So much for picking the best actor for the role.

Well whatever I'll probably build 7 small ultrabike style speakers myself then use those and sell my krks.

I'm a huge fan of surround for movies and casual gaming. When it comes to competitive multiplayer games, where you need those sound cues to be precise, headphones are much better IMO.

I've got things covered in the headphones department :)
This is just for movies(sometimes) and casual gaming.

I'll check his links too.

Have you already read Troels Gravesen's site?

No, but I know what I'll be doing the next few weeks, or months? I've seen one of his 4-ways that intrigued me, but I never knew where it was from! Thanks!

"A loudspeaker is to me not a piece of furniture but a transducer. As such it has an electrical input and produces an acoustic sound-field as output. I do not sell loudspeakers but offer construction plans for DIY duplication. I like to share what has given me satisfaction and enjoyment." Imagine the world if more people shared this sentiment.

Is that you with SL? That must have been great to have met him. I would like to build one of his speaker sustems, but being realistic will have to wait some years until retirement. (Edit: missing word)

That's Russ Riley, Linkwitz-Riley :)
Unfortunately, he died in 2010. I too wanted to meet mr. Linkwitz :(

Damn, based on earlier posts, a Linkwitz design? Would love to have system with active correction for each speaker with Acourate or similar. MitchCo at Computer Audiophile wrote great guides.

I use arta and rew to do all my work, rew generates dsp filters too. Amazing stuff.
Yep, subs are my design but Linkwitz transformed, will be used as omni's for 15-35 Hz, the rest is lx521.4, with aditional dsp smoothing. :)
Can't wait to do it

Actually I'm not sure if I'm gonna Linkwitz transform them or mod them into ported, cause at those frequencies, centered around 20 Hz, it's just lfe basically.

I want to hear Linkwitz speakers, the 521 in particular, more than just about any hi-fi setup. Why? Because I'd actually consider saving for them.

I'll buy the rest of the drivers I need for them soon! Can't wait :)
Will be posting about them when I'm done making them.

Cardioid sub + constant directivity horn is another option I'd like to have.

Some ribbons/planars might do it. I don't think the baffle size is the main issue here. The direct energy from back reflections that the baffle would eat is minimal. It needs to be open back with ideally same symmetry on back as front (very little in the way of obstructions), but in this sense, yes ideal one doesn't exist, probably.

well, the diameter should not be more than 2-3 cm. if you know of any ribbon, planar or estat like that I'm sold

I've even considered turning my mini tesla coils into plasma tweeters but I don't like ozone so...

Congrats! Just making it to the finals is a serious achievement, and especially for such a small country as you are.

I have a feeling Zidane was slightly more important than Thuram

Thuram made 2 goals in his entire career. On that day, 20 years ago. :D

England is playing the best I've seen them in a long, long time.... maybe ever. No actually, I'm sure now... this is the best I've ever seen the English team. I'm wishing you luck but England is going to be rough. Anything can happen in football though.

As long as football wins, it's all good. :)

I'm starting to think you guys might be talking about soccer...

You should see when he moved to volleyball.

What happened? Did they invade Russia?

Lol

Well, we'll see in a week's time if we will have invaded Russia or them us :D

I have a 650D sitting next to me, not sure when I'll ever upgrade it. Nice Cases. I've never tried to fit a woman inside it.

Neccessary joke about the components being my gf. She has fractal define mini.

Yeah, humongous cases. Beautiful stuff if you have the space. :)
I'll upgrade the case with custom loop watercooling I think :)
