No hints on driver selection? I'm horrible when it comes to surprises! Lol. Although, I hold no doubt as to it being a great speaker when you are done with the design. Glenn.

Originally posted by Wolf View PostNot really, to my knowledge, but here is some food for thought: - He favored the use of laminated cores for the cost, DCR, and size reduction. They are in the Continuum, Mandolin, and Piccolo for lowpass sections. - The Kairos have Solen Perfect Lay standard or Heptalitz coils and SoniCaps as the kit presented them initially, but the parts Jeff actually used weren't so snazzy. - He typically just used plain sandcast resistors, or Lynk types, because that is what he had or was sent to him. - Caps, as long as they were film/poly he usually showed no preference. I know he had large AXON, Solen, Erse types for mid HP use, and was happy about finding a RELcap from a rewrapped buyout somewhere at one point. He and Dave Elledge talked about that kind of thing before/more-than He/I did unless regarding to my usage of them. He had a bag of Cebo caps to try out last I was down there. I think the person you should ask is Seth Horton (s7horton). He built the Spirit Winds that Jeff loved. If anyone knew of a preference, that would have been the pair that showed what they were. Seth built those to Jeff's order. To be able to contact him, I know he built Jed's stuff at one point too, and he lives in GR, MI. He might post on here periodically. I do not have his contact info. I've never known him to use more than say an AudioCap Theta as a bypass on his David Towers, in terms of premium parts. Later, Wolf
