    Invictus Build

    I posted a build thread as I went at techtalk, might as well do a shorter one here

    I put Curt C's Invictus kit from meniscusaudio in a cabinet based off of the ZaphAudio ZRT.

    So it is a 3/4" Baltic birch cab approximately 38 Lt tuned to 30 hz with a 2" wide 5" long port. The Baffle is 1.5" thick

    They replaced Troels designed 3 way classics, and they are pretty much better in every way for my small listening room. Much better bass, equal mids, more detailed highs.

    Any questions or pic requests don't hesitate to ask

    Nice. What are you plans for finishing, paint or stain?

        Haven't you heard to improve imaging and soundstage, you should always wear socks.

          Well, Pete, socks will lower the diffraction, for sure, but with bare feet you can tune the imaging better... :W

                Wool socks - nice soft merino silk blend if you can get it. Hand knit. Huge upgrade in sound.

                But maybe Curt (who also signs off "C" - the other C to me) designs for bare feet!

                This design looks great and your build does it justice. Nice stuff!

                  Yes, he's serious folks. His wife knits his socks!
