Danny, would it be possible to post a drawing or explanation as to how the bottom and side will be connecting to the baffle? The way these connect may impact someone's final design or the way they are using the flatpack.

Thanks,
Ed

I am trying to get an idea how the various pieces will fit together, here is a quick sketch to clarify:

Thanks,

I'll get Ben to post some pics when he has time.

Danny,
Is there a reason that the base would have to continue on at the 100 degree angle once it passes the right side short wall?

Thanks,
Ed

It leaves room for mounting the crossover. It can of coarse be trimmed back as needed.

Maybe it needs a lip on the back edge for tube connectors.

It appears the baffle is 3/4" and everything else is 1/2", is this correct?

"Yep"

Why so? Would 3/4 not make for stiffer more rigid build?
In a pair which direction does the open side face; in or out?

There is no pressure put on the wing and no resonance issues. So 1/2" thick material is fine.

The larger wing goes to the inside. At least that is what will work best for most room. In an overly bright room it could sound better the other way.

Just my 2 cents, considering WAF.

I think making the top an open box of the same dimensions as the bottom and adding a post to the rear corner to hold the open box up would allow someone to at least add speaker fabric to cover the space on the top and open sides of the speaker, crossover, and rear of the drivers. This would be similar to the OB-5 photo on the kit pages.

Has a design for the 8" OB stand been solidified? Is there a best design as of this point? I have been following this forever but I am unsure of this. Please forgive me if I have overlooked something. I'm a father now and I do not spend as much time on the site as I used too. Happy 4th to all!!

They have been used on a U shaped frame and an H frame.

I have several kits that will be using them too. Just being held up right now by other stuff.
