Americana's My 2018 Indiyana entry

[jhollander]

Nick, nice build. The guys with the lathes will do well in this competition. I surprised Ben knows what I'm doing as I'm not quite sure myself.

pretty easy, it is glued on. Tap from the magnet vent hole and it will pop out.

The phase plug can be removed easily by turning the driver upside down and giving it a sharp hit with a punch that fits the hole...it's a 2 second ordeal.

How hard is it to remove the phase plug from the RS drivers?

[Wolf]

I think not! ...but the gauntlet has surely been thrown...
I know what Javad, Nick, Bill, Kenny, JohnH, and myself are doing; and it will be pretty stiff competition!

Making your own coaxial again? Alright guys, time to pack it! InDIYana 2018 is already settled

[Wolf]

Nice! Looks like the competition might be pretty stiff in the Spring...

Later,

I am SO digging the truncated pyramids. I've been thinking about building something like that for a long time.

Very nice, aluminum ring around the tweeter?

[ceiol]

looks great so far!

can you give more details about how you mounted the tweeter in the mids?

I'm tentatively calling these the americana, do to the paint scheme being similar to an old vending machine. The drivers will be a tang band 1761 min tweeters coaxially mounted to a dayton rs100p, and finally a tang band w69 woofer. These are basically multiple truncated pyramids with different side angles, and that includes the internal enclosure for the rs100p.
