    Has clearwave left the DIY market?

    So I've been working on a 4T build for what seems like forever, and with working on my brother's house I'll probably not have the cabinets finished for some time (his house was badly damaged by a tornado, and we have to basically rebuild the whole thing).

    I went to the website today to see how much the kits are running these days, and I don't see any of the DIY kits available anymore! :E :E

    Does anyone have any information?

    If the speakers are indeed not available now, what alternative are there that would use the same cabinet? I'd hate to scrap all of that work. :cry:

    I think he said the Dynamic series would still be available?

      Interesting. That page isn't linked to any of the pages accessed just by going to the home page....

          I haven't left the DIY market... just been reorganizing the website still. The Dynamic Series will continue to be supported and sold. These decisions are difficult when pricing on all the neo drivers (Tangband W4-1337) keeps going up and up. And as always, I'm always just a phone call or email away if you should have questions. I also have an active support forum for my customers, if they should run into any questions during their builds. I just had another order for a set of 4TSE and 4CCSE today actually, the Dynamic Series is alive and well. As Doug noted, the kits are linked to the "Archive" section on the main page. I used to call it "kits" but not all the speakers there were kits, so I changed the heading. I should probably call it something else or have kits listed separately.

          I'll admit the website has taken a back seat lately, as I've been very busy working on my speaker lines. Thanks again to all those who have supported this venture!

            I think the Archive page was the only one I didn't check! Doh! ops:

            Good to know my labor isn't for naught. I have a while to go before I finish the first cabinet, much less the second.... I did notice the SE versions have jumped a bit. Dang Neo prices! I actually may have to downgrade to the non-SE versions, as the $300 jump for the mains and $150 for the CC starts to add up. That's the cost of a decent thickness planer, after all. :B

            Sorry for the false alarm, and thanks for keeping the record straight.

              I just finished updating my website, because I didn't want there to be continued confusion. I'm glad you brought this to my attention. There is now a tab for the "DIY" kits along with the Archive of my past designs (some of which can be made available if someone asks for them).

              Sorry about the increase in costs... everything has been going up in price since the introduction of the Dynamic Series started a few years back.

                Good change Jed, I think that will help with the confusion.

                  Just a plug for Jed and his incredible customer service. He really is always just a phone call or email away. I've dealt with him and refered him many times. His service and quality is second to none!
