…The first ones really don’t come out too well.
I’ve started building my first speakers- making 3 of the Modula MT’s. One for a center channel and then a pair to use maybe as rear speakers. Having never built speakers before, I’m starting by making the center speaker first. As that progresses, I’ll see what parts of the cabinet design and procedure I like and then refine everything for the following pair to be built. Even with my very novice woodworking skills, it’s amazing how many things I’ve messed up so far. The rear baffle somehow came out a little small, the inside port flare isn’t as perfect as I’d like, adding T-nuts to the inside rear panel split one of the braces I made, I tried gluing on 4 pieces of the outside cabinet but couldn’t get things all lined up so I had to pull it apart, wipe off the glue, and only glue on 2 sides at a time… None of these things are that bad. Probably won’t influence the performance at all. Just a little ugly. And all are easy to change for when I make the next 2 speakers.
Thanks to everyone for all the help you’ve provided so far. I’m definitely having lots of fun with this.
