I'm using a relatively expensive Connex 600W SMPS: I started out ordering a Sure 3x200W T-Amp board: I want to build an external amp unit for each speaker.Įach amp unit would have 3 class D amplifiers - one for each speaker driver - and a DSP to do the crossover / filtering. My project is building a pair of speakers that might resemble the Philharmonic BMR's - a BMR driver for the mids, an Isoplanar Dynamic tweeter, and a (sub)woofer driver. I just found this thread and I think it's kind of related to my 'low and slow' multiyear hobby project I look forward to seeing where this project goes. I think there are some very clever people on ASR who I hope will come up with some cutting edge approach to bass. The monitor could be the part that gets shipped around for testing and leaves the heavy part in situ.īass is probably were people have the most individual requirements, I am in a room 4m X 13m and my old transmission lines just wont cut it any more. I like the idea of separate Bass cab and a monitor type to sit on top. Keeping the rest of the cabinet simple enough to have your local timber yard cut the required panels, ie a flat pack solution.Ī DIY cutting edge 3 way floor standing design with reasonable cost is in short supply, unless I missed it?

Having a lightweight mould / baffle / waveguide that could be shipped / printed and filled at home is a perfect idea. I think this forum is exciting and feels like a breath of fresh air, after reading 20 pages I would happily follow and build this project.ĭesign consensus appears the most difficult issue, here are my thoughts as a relative novice speakers builder.Ĭabinet construction and lack of tools is the biggest hurdle, especially the baffle.
