Trump Tower build

[4thtry]

I love seeing projects like this, as most of us DIYers do. It's insperational to the builders in us to have the whole assembly process laid out in front of us. You definitely have a talent that's to be strived for. Simply amazing stuff on this post! Only thing that baffled me was the lack of "Likes" for it on the front page with the shear number of views gathered by it. You have to hit the "Like" on the first post for it to register on there. I'm pleased to be the first to do it, wish I could do it a thousand times, and suggest everyone to go back and hit it. Thanks for an awesome build!

It's an addiction, my friend. One pair inevitably leads to another. The great joy is that our listening to all the great music is constantly getting better.
Enjoy!

Isn't it just. The listening and evaluating process is really the best part.
I've built many over the years but the ones I really need to finish I started 30 years ago! 3 way towers that have had the woofers repaired but the boxes are still in a different finish! This way I'm not so tempted to start another project for myself as these aren't finished (like a dozen other of my projects, mostly car related).
Having said that I did order 4 new drivers today........ if the wife saw this she'd ask how I have time when I'm very busy converting our house so we can live in it.

I can't post a link here, but on Amazon I found a SMLS SA300 for a friend. Specifications seem quite a bit better than some of the competition.

Thanks, Don! That looks like a winner! By the way, your message box is crammed full.

Hey guys, someone asked me - and now I'm asking you - for a recommendation for driving these speakers. After a move into a new home and a new setup in progress, a nephew wants a recommendation for: a receiver with bluetooth built in, all in a small form factor, if possible. Any suggestions? Again, it's for driving these Radickal Towers.

Thanks for the kind words, guys!

Thanks dude. I"m just a wood hacker, but learned SO much from an expert like PassingInterest.

It's been awhile since I last logged in here and only now saw the recent activity on this thread. Thank you fine folks for the kind words! I hope that Don and I were able to inspire some people.

You certainly have inspired me! I still have a sheet of cedar veneer in my stack for a future project.

Well I for one am glad you did. Otherwise I wouldn't have seen them.

Good job all round from design through to completion and everything inbetween.

Now I'm inspired to finish my speakers and maybe build another pair........ damn!

Yes I am dragging up a 2-year old thread. I read all 12pages this morning and feel the craftsmanship and tutorship deserved a refresh. Excellent work.

Mine are still getting daily use. Sometimes heavy use. They're still going strong, and still sound great.

I love it when a plan comes together!
