Re: RS-P WWMTM 3 Way underway ( pic heavy )

damn guys , i think i'm hooked on speaker building . is there help for it ???

i'm already planning surrounds for these and they don't even need them ... :eek:

No hope. No escape. Your house slowly starts to fill up with wonderful sounding pairs of speakers in every room.

If you have lots of friends and/or family, they start giving you more affection.:D

LMK when you put a setup in the bathroom.

Re: RS-P WWMTM 3 Way underway ( pic heavy )

these things are amazing . i've had no desire to turn on my surrounds or sub they sound so good !!!

Any chance of more pics of the finished units?

you can count on it Rory ! Thanks again for handling the tweeter issue ...

this is where i tend to run outta steam during my builds , they are together in place and being used . i find it hard to get motivated and get the finish done .

today i went to the Shack and got some circuit boards so i no longer have an excuse not to get the XO's together , tho i have to admit my lack of experience in putting XO's together does have me a lil concerned as these do deserve some good work ...

Don't make the crpssover build more difficult than it needs to be, it's not very complicated. Just take your time, lay things out neatly, secure, then solder.

i hear ya Joey and i've been studying them laying on top of the speaker for a while , my main concern is the size of these caps . did you see how big the 75uF is ???

the things the size of a beer can ...

Hhahaha yeah, I have a 90uf in my surrounds I think and a 12awg or 14awg inductor. Thing weighs like 5 lbs alone.

Sadly, tear all that apart, lay it out nice and neat, I try my best to make it as fluid as possible but sometimes it just doesn't happen, give the resistors some breathing room, hot glue/zip-strip the big stuff down, solder underneath, put standoffs on the board, then stick it in there.

hu hu....he said stick it in there.....





EDIT:

I knew I had it somewhere.... this is the woofer section for my Khanspires...

nice ...

i thought about multiple boards and may end up doing so .... Josh has got my 3ohm resistors in the mail , once i have those i'll get to work ....

[joeybutts]

Re: RS-P WWMTM 3 Way underway ( pic heavy )

Yeah, I did multiples because all of mine had a plethora of parts and my bracing didn't allow for large boards and I found it a bit easier. Now that I know about barrier strips I'll use those as well.

Re: RS-P WWMTM 3 Way underway ( pic heavy )

i'm gonna try to get it on one board , inside my bottom foam is space for 7"x9" but the boards i got today are 6 3/4" x 4 3/4" ...

I'd suggest pegboard and zip ties instead.

thanks for the schematic Josh ...

i think your right . i took a good look at everything last night and 1) these circuit boards are kinda small 2) i'd probably just end up drilling a bunch of holes anyways.

pegboard isn't really local though , will have to go into town this weekend ...
