Madisound Kit speakers w/Xover--$59!!!

I personally need this like a hole in the head, but DAMN!!, a fifty nine buck Vifa kit??  Somebody has to buy this and slap it in a box and report on it. And the FR curve actually looks pretty decent.  The crossover alone would run $50+ if you ordered all the parts.  Kudos to Madisound :bowdown:

No doubt a good deal. Buy the parts kit for an additional $29, you've got a pair for under $100 shipped to your door. If you've got some wood laying around, you're golden. Thanks for the heads up!

Not likely to find anything near it for the price.

The only issues I see with those are that the xo frequency is rather high (3kHz), so there will be a bit of a dip in the off axis response, and they only have a couple of dB of BSC. If they are placed near-wall, or on an actual bookshelf, these become non-issues.

At that price, I should just grab the kit and build me a pair. I only have 14 pairs of DIY speakers hanging around the house.

the $29.50 if not for a parts kit. Its for one individual speaker, instead of buying the pair. The parts are bought separately.

I'm completely in for this. It's going to wait a while before I build them. But I'm going to order them.

Hey!

   With that kind of price it made me want to build a pair even though I don't need another pair of speaker :lol:

Take care,
