Anyone remember Dayton Audio Esoteric Series? 5" and 7" woofers?

I was unpacking some Wharfdale Reva speakers to use for testing out an electronic crossover for Steve, and got reminded of these, because a bin of each was under the Revas....






They date back to 2014... crap, more than 10 years old. I'm sure the reason...

This is a new "Evil Design Study" in the old tradition, which will soon be converted to an active project as components ordered begin to arrive...

The premise is quite simple, based on a few objectives which have been prioritized:

• Extended LF performance with low distortio

Hello Everyone

I am new to DIY, after extensive search, I have decided to go for Swope MTM. This is my first build on proven designs. Main reason to decide on this design is because of the parts availability in India. I have collected all major design info's from multiple threads....

Currently developing a set of 5.1 speakers after being out of the game for quite a while. I am using the creativesound.ca kits. The plan is to use a V2 (MTM) for center, V2 ML TL (vertical MTM, transmission line tower) and V1 (MT, ported 2-way bookshelf).

As of now I haven't started the...

Did the research, saw how affordable they were, ordered the parts, printed out the cut sheet, and started cutting MDF...so I guess its official.

Total cost for all the drivers and x-over components: $230 (as of 1/20/2014)

The plan is to use these 3 Ochocincos as L/C/R for an...

Hey all, just posting my long (can someone say 6 weeks?) build from cutting the MDF to the glueing, flush trim bitting, jasper jigging, veneering, cutting, jigging again, filing, sanding, sanding again, staining, aaand finally putting the XOs together and screwing the whole thing all together!!

I'm getting ready to start building two sets of Ochocinco's.

I'm going to be building my Ocho's different than the original design. Because of that, I thought that I would try and do something that I've never really done in the past, document what I'm doing, and try and be diligent about...

I had planned to build a friend a pair of MTM's last year and the AviaTrix fit the bill. So I ordered up the components, bought the Padauk for the bafles, and of course months went by. Well he confirmed his re-location so I pushed and got them built, because I kind of had too . Since I had additional...

Crazy idea time. I'm stealing this from a post at the PE Forum by Spasticteapot. He wondered about using steel tube for enclosures. I'm not sure if he did anything with it, because he had problems getting tube steel. I'm a structural engineer - I don't have problems getting tube steel. So, today I picked...

*** MODS, if you're reading this, is it possible for you to change the thread title to "RS150 MTM translam build (formerly Tritrix translam)" or something? Just so folks won't get confused as I didn't use the tritrix. Thanks. ***

Yes, I'm doing all of the routing myself, which...

[Finleyville]

Anyway...

Here is a short thread of my noobster build. A great thanks to augerpro for the work involved in designing them. I ordered the parts from PE for the MTM with the tweets on back order until mid December. The total BOM with one sheet of MDF totaled to $300 for the pair.

I would have thought someone else would have done this by now--maybe my internet searching abilities are very lacking. Anyways, I just ordered 4 4-ohm RS100s and 2 ND20FAs. Should arrive on Wednesday, maybe by the end of the week I will get a chance to do some testing. I recently moved to chicagoland...

[bikedave]

I searched around and didn't find a definite answer to my question so I will pose it before the experts who can answer it easily. I am copying an MTM design which I like but modifying the enclosure from a standard rectalinear box to cylindrical. I understand that the baffle size and shape must stay...

[fjhuerta]

The idea:
It all started when a friend asked me for a small minimonitor for his home. I initially thought of an RS28 / RS125 speaker. After running a couple of sims, it was obvious this was not going to work, since a single RS125 could not handle too much load. The speaker grew, as my friend's...

[max_andrews]

Bored at work, fun! Would be great paired with a sonic impact t-amp. I might offer these up as a kit if I have the time...
