After some emails with Curt and Jim, I am going to attempt a Bordeaux build. I was looking for a design that could compete or improve on the Maggie 3.6s I have had for quite a about 10 years. Not quite ready for John's Wavecore Ardent, although I look forward to the challenge of building that cabinet. Mr. Holtz has put together a great data package and Curt did a great job explaining the design philosophy in several emails. I am excited to find out how good DYI can be.
This afternoon was spent using the cut sheet to make lots of MDF dust. I hate MDF dust. All of the cuts I could make using my little Jet saw were done outdoors. (It was a beautiful day in Atlanta for cutting outside) The other cuts were indoors on the Unisaw. Trying to manhandle a 4 by 8 sheet of MDF gets harder every year older I get. These are going to be heavy speakers. Nice that there are going to be two enclosures each.
The enclosures are going to be the fun part. I hope ya'll will help me through the crossover build.
(Jim, there were a couple of dimensions on the cut sheet that were left off, but otherwise well laid out very easy to follow)
