rpb, I don't see the 5.25" Peerless GFC cone on sale at PE or Madisound. Where are you seeing those prices?

it's the Dayton RSS 18' sub-woofer. It also has smaller holes all around the vent about 8 I think. I'm guessing the center pole vent is about an 1"...

Yeah, I'm not too concerned about maxing out the mid or tweeter. Unless I don't use any components to roll them off on their low end, it shouldn't be...

What is your nephew's goal (and why DIY?)? Trying to save money? Trying for the ultimate sound, and cost is no object? What is his plan (practice...

Yes Sir, i really would to build this speakers ! It would be great if you have the building plans ! Thank you very much

I think I use 8 parts on just the vifa tweeter. Others have used less I'm sure.

So it could overheat and melt the voice coil? I'm not sure if I should bother wasting my time on this.

My 60 year old Altec cones can still make your ears hurt without turning to dust. Nice score on the Marantz, I'm a fan of them also. :)

I have a few of her CDs. I really enjoy the music, but the recording quality is bad to worse.

Car audio 6x9s are usually designed to be used on the rear package tray, which means BIG box requirements. IMO they usually sound like crap when...
