| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question I’ve decided to do the Troels Gravesen’s design Atell 3. A DIY version of Kaiser’s classic speaker. I like to break each individual part down for a build and then mock up each part to insure it to my satisfaction before starting on the production... | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question fatdaddy2, Exactly. Hiring US workers with US taxes, US healthcare, US utilities etc. these ever increasing costs need to be recouped in every widget a company produces. As a manufacturer if you don't know your true cost of doing business you b... | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question ditusa, Thanks for that link. Now there is one on the list. To build a speaker cabinet without it doesn't make sense. 1. Stronger joint for structure integrity. 2. More bonding surface than traditional 45 miter. 3. Provides an air tight sea... | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question carlsbad, There are some in this hobby that believe if you spend more it must be better. I've been using power tools since I was very young so I have a great appreciation for having the skill set to build your own speakers. With what I do for... | |
| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question I asked this very question in a thread DIY speakers. If the design and xover are proven then that leaves building the cabinets to the CAD or drawing specs. Not all DIY have someone that makes them and ships them as flat panels for end user to a... | |

| DIY speakers erik_squires I'm using Panzerholz so there are very few cabinet makers that have worked with this densified plywood. I've seen it stop a Powermatic 3hp table saw cutting 25mm Panzerholz. I don't want a cabinet that looks like a woodworkers p... | |
| DIY speakers Old, That was the point of the discussion. I do not have the time to make cabinets with powered and hand tools. I run two businesses and have a choice at the end of the day to eat, sleep, or shower but cannot do all three. Maybe when I have ... | |
| DIY speakers oldhvymec, I am in professional motorsports that adhere to extreme +/- tolerances so working with wood is relatively easy compared. I have three large routers with high HP with over 12 tool carousel. They do 3D cutting so cutting these panels ... | |
| DIY speakers erik_squires Thanks for redirecting me in that direction. I also appreciate your concern about a four way build. My skill set would allow me to build this, with some head scratching I'm sure, but feel confident this will not be out of thee r... | |
| Thiel Owners I get the seller does not want to ship as I said the same thing last week in this thread about a rare pair of 2.7 in white I did not want to ship. I'm in manufacturing and the condition of freight. if the freight arrives without being lost, is b... | |
| Thiel cs2.4 upgrade to cs 2.4 se spathak94506, I have the complete opposite experience with the 7.2. I never heard them described as lean. Mine produce check thumping bass. There are certain things I only play with them as evert other fails in bottom end compared to the 7.2. ... | |
