| Stuck at home? Make a speaker or something for goodness sake! I have all the parts for both a subwoofer and an active crossover at 100 hz. Right now I have too many summer chores to do, but I am looking forward to starting these two soon! | |

| Wheels for floor standing speakers I had hospital cart casters on my workbench. $100 for a pair 15 years ago, got two pair, two wheels each caster.I still have them - on my computer cart now. Still work great. | |
| is there a ghost in my machine? Can you swap the tubes in the CJ? Left to right? | |
| An untamed room and a vivid speaker... Maybe something with a convolution engine? Roon, Hqplayer, minidsp depending on what format you listen to mostly. I'm in a garage and listen mostly to hires files. Using REW and rePhase I was able to smooth out some issues, bring in more low mi... | |
