Which Bookshelf Speaker Kit?

[neo__04]

Hey all,

Looking to build my first speaker kit and cant decide which one!

Im looking for a set of bookshelf speakers, to run off a mini amp for my computer.
Will be used for mainly music/gaming but also movies.
I dont want to build anything too small because I want them to be able to be put in the living room attached to the tv.

I've read goof review of the overnight sensation MT & MTM, but thats on the cheaper end of things.
Also read good things about the Tritrix and Aviatrix, but the aviatrix is starting to get expensive once i pay for the shipping to australia as well.

The Zaph Audio ZA5.3 MTM read well too, but again getting expensive with freight.

If i could buy drivers in australia and get the crossover parts from overseas it would certainly help but I cant seem to source most of the driver brands in australia.

Any suggestions on a nice kit to suit my needs, then ill work out how much i have to spend :P

I need someone to help me make a decision, Because i've been reading for weeks and cant decide which kit!

A lot of the kits over here use the Dayton drivers. Have you looked at Troels Gravesens' site? I would think most of his drivers can be sourced closer to you. And welcome to HTGuide! No matter what you build , you'll find a wealth of information here , along with good folks willing to help.

Hi Alaric,

Thanks for the info, i've had a read through that and dont think i can quite find what im looking for size wise or its a little over budget.

The speedster looks nice, again the drivers are getting pretty expensive. I'd like to aim for around the $200usd mark for a set.

I'll have to keep doing my homework!
