Re: Deewan's various speaker builds

Love the center speaker stand. I would like to build one. Do you have a drawing available?

Sorry, I rarely have drawings for anything I build. Most of it is done on the fly after I picture the end result in my head. I don't even have that stand anymore to give you measurements. Sorry.

Dynamic 4CC
Rounding out the new speakers for the theater.
Center Speaker Stand - Mahogany inlay with hand rubbed copper paint (pictures do not do this finish or color justice). Added Wii sensor bar to bottom of speaker to hide it from sight.

I'm looking for a inexpencive surround with good sound I was looking at your H7 two way.Is that a vifa tweeter and wich peerless is that?Also the recession buster,can you give me some info on these so I can price the drivers?And if there still available for a good price can you post scematics of the x-overs?Thanks!

Sorry, the Recession Buster has discontinued drivers. The H7 is about $350 pair before cabinets, but I think all the drivers are still available.

Re: Deewan's various speaker builds

Did you ever finish the center stand/sub holder?
andy.

I did threw up some pics in post #69. That is how the cabinet sits today. I ended up not hiding or covering the sub drivers with a fake cabinet door like I had once considered.

The pinstripes are silver automotive tape. Very thin stuff.

Rory. The faucets were made using a power hand planer.

Re: Deewan's various speaker builds

This is one of the best looking builds I've seen in a while. What was your method for achieving the chamfers for the faceted look of the baffles?

Re: Deewan's various speaker builds

Those turned out great! Are the pin stripes painted on?
Thanks!

I wish you were closer... I would love to hear the setup in person.

Re: Deewan's various speaker builds

Was any isolation needed for the center channel resting on the subs? I would think a sub would vibrate to much, but maybe you have the cabinets thick enough...

Great question and something I did consider. The sub enclosure is very heavy, well braced, and has double thick 3/4 inch walls. So it doesn't vibrate much. However, I wanted did want to take added steps. Not sure if it can be seen in any of the photos, but the speaker feet on the center channel have rubber tips. I think this help isolate the CC from any vibrate that may make it's way to the top of the sub cabinet and it helps provide some extra tacky traction to make sure the CC cabinet doesn't walk it's way around when big bass notes hit. So far the CC is still exactly where I placed it last year.
