Hey guys. Total amateur here. I'm building a pair of Paul Carmody's Classix II. Just wanted some help.
I just wanted confirmation that my crossover is put together correctly. If so, I'll go ahead and put together the second one. I used a diagram that I found on another thread here on PE (which apparently is given out in Classix kits in other retailers). How's my soldering?
While I'm here, I also have a few other questions. I just finished putting the first color coat of spray paint on the cabinets, and it looks pretty bad. There are scuffs and parts of MDF that ate the painting. Could I just wet sand this coat of paint and vinyl wrap the cabinets over the paint job instead? I would be much happier with that. If not, is there any way to fix the MDF parts that ate the paint?
Also, lastly, what do you guys recommend I mount the crossover on? I'd like to screw it on the bottom on a piece of cardboard in case I need to service it in the future, but I'm not sure how safe that is (resistors get hot right?).
Also thanks to Mr. Carmody for making such a speaker that fits into my music taste (loud, poorly-recorded punk and blues).
Thanks so much!
