Say it ain't so Parts Express, no more Dayton pre-made/finished enclosures...

I'm usually good for one to two pairs of these cabinets a year, so this is upsetting to say the least. It would be nice if you could keep at least a single finish in each size in stock.

I would imagine rising costs and bare MDF flat packs lead to this. Too bad.

Maybe they're changing designs or vendors.

We can hope.... i wondet too if shipping/pkg costs killed too. That is a bummer. They were always a great go-to option.

I never used their cabinets but they always seemed like a good deal. that really is a big blow to the DIY crowd who don't have access to a garage and tools + 100 hours of free time to build a custom leaky cabinet :p . Total bummer.

Considering they sold them to commercial speaker companies as well, it seems unlikely they're giving up on them completely.

Seems like a possible opportunity for those with fabrication capabilities to network and provide a service.

After working to build my 2 sub enclosures for the past couple of weeks, I came to the conclusion a couple days ago that PE and DIYSoundGroup enclosure are a super amazing bargain! I hope they continue making/offering them. I own the .5 cuft Denovo enclosure and it has been such a great bargain, allowing a year's worth of music before I build my own for very low price.

Can PE share any further information with us GingerRohlfs ?

Thank you.

Speaking of which. I may need you to do a large set of cabs fo me..... ill be in touch. What I want is beyond my capability. I.e. more than square cuts. Ill be in touch to chit chat.

Good to hear, I have never pulled the trigger on the cabs but have looked at them so many times. Maybe I'm the only one, but I would like to see a budget finished cab (think BR1 cab) in a couple different sizes with blank baffles. The high quality ones that had been offered are beautiful, but a lower priced option would be nice.

Thank you for the reply Jeff.

I found out that they were changing suppliers quite awhile ago. I made some suggestions for additions and changes to the line. Hopefully someone listened as I have purchased quite a few over the last several years.

Great news! My intimates utilized PE's curved sided, cherry finished 1/2 cu. ft cabinets. My wife loved them to the extent I was allowed to set them up in our living room where I created a whole new listening system away from the one in my study. I hope, Jeff, the quality from the new supplier is as good as original.
