I tried searching for this, but came up empty handed. (Found one thread over a year old that never went anywhere)
I'm looking to change the front of my theater. (My first DIY project) It's currently speakers in front, screen behind.
I want to sell the front three speakers and go with a DIY design that may be something like the Klipsch KL-650-THX or the JTR 8HT.
The priorities are as follows:
- Goes on wall. No baffle step correction.
- High Dynamic Rage
- Some finesse in music reproduction, not TOO frat house ;-)
- Can build 3 for roughly $1000-$1500
Additional details:
- I'd like them to be no deeper than 8 to 10 inches, but I have plenty of leeway in the width and height. (up to 20 inches wide and 50 inches tall)
- They don't need to go any lower than roughly 70 hz
- The screen material is SMX http://www.smxscreen.com/audio-measurements.html Not sure if I'd muck with the crossover to catch any characteristics of the screen
So the stupid question is, has anyone else ever tackled a project like this one? It shouldn't take as long to build as my clearwave rbrs (http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?s...3&l=b4fd4477ea) because I have no need to finish them properly. (Out of sight, out of mind.)
Any and all ideas welcome. :-)
