SEOS-8 Waveguide T Labs SB etc

[Mike220]

I have a waveguide for the N26 on the way from the printer right now. You could use my measurements for the tweeter mounting surface if you have the older tweeter. The new one changed the holes and screw positions. When I settle on a design I'll adapt it to the new tweeter. With a shallower waveguide it is really tight allowing a big enough cutout for the faceplate screws without punching through the wall of the waveguide.

How much do those 3d printed waveguides run you Auger? Interested to see the results on that guide.

Well...commercial printers would probably run >$200 per piece, but I've had some very generous people help me out just to see the project move forward. Once final designs are settled on,probably CNC would be most affordable for DIY'ers (I'll freely share the model files). There is always the possibility of partnering with a commercial outfit where injection molding would drop the price substantially.

On a somber note, I just heard that Transducer Labs is no longer in business, at least that was the word from Christian Nedelcu in an email response I just received.

Hmmm, that sucks to hear Pete, i may want to bail out on these tweeters i may end up wanting a center channel in the future.

Yep-
Cristian just responded to my inquiry as well. 'As of a few weeks ago' he said.

Very sad,

Well that's a bummer. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone will buy the parts/rights.

Well its a shame that an American made product cant compete. not by quality but price and volume.. Lets hope we see someone pick up the reigns.... Albeit the Danish have ruled its all China now ! Even with the big manufactures

Well that sux...

Rumor mill now is they are going to move and open in a new facility.

Let's hope so, I dug up some RS28s the testing will start with those.

Hope TL is able to stay in business. I wonder why Madisound and PE don't carry their line. That would help them out, I'm sure. I'd like to see them re-evaluate face plate size. But, maybe their is a reason for it's size that I'm not seeing.

[dcibel]

You only have to look at the magnet size on the back to see why the faceplate is bigger. Maybe they could make a neo model with a smaller plate, if they stay in business.

[Pete Schumacher]

I hope they don't change a thing on those tweeters if they continue to make them. I've always stuck those massive face plates behind a waveguide, so big/small makes no difference to me.

What waveguide Pete? My TLs or Viawaves will go in my "keeper" system whoever wins!
