Richard, The cap goes across the resistor and inductor. Solder it across the resistor. Use at least a good polypropylene cap. at these low values, a film and...
Thanks Bob I might try the cap tweak first as the tweeters are going to cost the best part of a £100. Can I bypass at the speaker posts or do I need to add...
Richard, The only cheap tweak that I can think of is to bypass the BSC filter with a 1-2uF capacitor. That will give you more output at the top. However, if...
Hi Bob I'll just start by saying I am still really pleased with my 1600s! But...If I were to change something it would be the top end. The speakers sound very...
Thanks Bob, I thought you mentioned before to set it at 40Hz. I had it set to between 40-50 Hz when the room was reacting. It was with vinyl that can get...
For 2-channel music, I set the sub XO to 40Hz. This fills down to ~20Hz with my sub in my room. Once the frequency reaches the point where a 1/2 wave length...
I was shocked and surprised to find that Yahoo! closed the Geocities site that has hosted my web site for the last 10 years. Oh, well. The new web site is...

Richard, I forgot to answer one of your questions. Yes, you can eliminate the BSC filter if you use DSP to do the contouring. Another reason to use Foobar2000...
Richard, ... Panasonic WM-61A connected to the Wallin Preamp. ... Sigh. I tried for years to do measurements on the cheap. Never had decent results. I used...
Merle, Alas, this is the case. #420 is considered a commercial product and is only available in boxes of 16. The best alternative is is a product called "duct...
Back to my speaker project after way too long of a diversion... Alas, all I can find locally for Armstrong #420 is the commercial equivalent #2911 at...

Fred, The W8-1772 models as a drop-in for the FE207E in the FT-2000 cabinet. The TB starts to roll off a bit earlier in the bass than the FE, which is actually...
Bob, have you considered whether either of these would work in your existing enclosures? The 1772 doesn't seem too different from the Fostex 207. It would be...
Just some notes on my experiences. Fiberglass board. This worked out well--better than expected. Look for heating/air (HVAC) supplier or ask your heating/air...

Jim, The acoustic results of reducing the cabinet depth to 10" from 11 1/4" is subtle. There is no reason to build new cabinets. If I was mass producing...
Bob, As you know I built the LT-2000 speakers from your plans a couple years ago and have been using the DX-3 driver. Concerning your cabinet dimension change...
Made a few changes to the web site.: Had to up the prices again to cover increased materials costs. But note -- shipping is included in the price. I split the...
Richard, I have no idea what a good router bit should cost you in the UK. I pay ~$25 delivered for my 3/4" round over bits and they are of so-so quality. From...
