Thanks guys!
Wow, I have been lurking through the site and its impressive. I’ve been doing woodworking for a while and somehow got tired of doing the obvious furniture stuff.
Couple months back I had a pair of speaker that was in need of some love and decided to open the thing and realized that some caps change were in order…While at it, it surely could be improved…One thing led to another I redesigned the shop to have a decent soldering station so I could do cables and simple stuff and then…listened to Danny on YT talking about speakers and xovers…

Well I’ll trying my hands at some speakers after the crazy season! You guys have so many build pictures it insane. Very happy to have find like minded people!  :D

John one simple thing that you can do that no one speaker builder do is round the corners inside the box.

Great tips! 🤔 Do you mind explaining why? Analogy for « cutting corners »? maybe I’m too much of a geek 😂🤣
