Building a pair of speakers now. Not a kit. Don't think you would like the construction because there's hardly any wood. Sealed, vertical 10" PVC pipe and epoxy urethane "saddles" (for lack of a better term) to mount the drivers. Closest comparison in appearance might be a B&W Diamond Signature. Four GR Research 165X's per side and a BG Neo3PDR tweeter in a 2.5 way series/parallel MTMWW arrangement. All four 6.5's handle the bass but the lower 2 drivers roll off earlier for baffle step compensation and to raise impedance in the lower octaves. They can share a common air space because it's just a bypass cap without the phase shift of an parallel inductor. Second order Bessel crossover at over 1800Hz with 0.6 Erse air core coils, 6.2uF Sonicaps (maybe with some small bypass caps). Milspec wire and adjustable stereo Lpads (at least for now), wired in parallel because they don't make 4 ohm versions. Built with a subwoofer, or two, in mind.
Except for the rap, my musical tastes aren't too different.
Should be fairly obvious that I like it loud.
Warning: Forget the budget. Little things tend to add up and mistakes get costly.
