Best Of

Thanks guys. I'm already planning my next crossover project, it'll be a bit more serious than this one.

Things are getting better.

I tried listening to a CD once before on my HT rig in stereo, didn't make it past the first song...just horrible. Tonight I put in the same CD, Gaucho and while not in the same league as the big rig, it's a major improvement.....I listened to the entire CD.

Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Cost, you can price the caps and resistors at Sonic Craft. The binding post plates you can price at VR3mods. I would guess all the rest was about $150.00. Time, about 2 days (16 hours) for everything.

I've tried to come up with some off the wall remark, but instead I find myself in agreement with all here



awesome job

Nice work Jesse!

Fyi, I've cut aluminum similar to the square hollow spacers with my compound miter saw using a carbide tip blade - fast and neat.

that seems like a simpler

It was actually very labor intensive. I had to cut the SS all thread to length, rethread the cut ends and smooth out the burrs. The tubing walls are extremely thin, so I had to rough cut them with a Dremel cut off wheel, then hand file to length. The lay out took a while to get it just right, then figuring out where to drill the holes took a while as well. I was able to use the first A7 board as a template for the second, so that went faster. I used pin/socket connectors for the wires, but had to cut them shorter, a real PITA. Then soldering them to the pins of the Molex without melting the Delrin was yet another challenge. There's a lot more, but I'm sure you get the idea.

Thanks for the compliment.
