I've built a subwoofer swarm of late using 10'' drivers, two of them are shaped like B&W's cabinet's with curved sides and back, sloped and curved top. The other two are simply rectangular boxes all covered with walnut veneer. I also upgraded my cyclone dust collector and bought into the festool platform. Remember, tools are relatively inexpensive compared to audio. I also live in the south and discovered Formoson termites in my shop walls and have been rebuilding it. Do not take them for granted my friends.
Maybe this is the winter you build something!
Hey it's me. Just reminding you to please consider building something this winter. From a new power cable to speakers, maybe new acoustic panels you DIY or even speakers or a sweet preamp kit.
You'll have a lot of fun, and learn a ton.
It's weird to me that when I suggest Audiophiles might enjoy building stuff themselves I get flack. "I don't like that! Stop promoting DIY! It will never be as good!"
Whatever. I think building is fun and educational.
