      @scottalanmiller With the hot glue holding the multitudes of little 3-inch drivers in? Lol

      And all kinds of tubes inside the speak to make "reverb" on one channel and not the other. Some Bose aren't even STEREO!

        Messing with the crossovers for the custom speakers I finished not very long ago and goodness do these things sound awesome!! They're a full redesign of the legendary Acoustic Research AR-94SX speakers 0_1482949810634_EkEM0nq.jpg

        What, not wall hanging? 😛

          I made the sub boxes for my truck 15 years ago.. it was a pain figuring out the volume considering they couldn't just be normal squarish boxes.

            Most speaker design is in the crossover and cabinet.

            Except for Bose, most of their design is in the marketing.

              Uh..... that doesn't go in any audiophile discussion. JBL isn't Bose but it's not even remotely audiophile either.

                  Which, given some of my background, is quite unusual.

                      Yes. Even though BB sells them now. B+W go very high but have entry level too. Their too end speakers are $50K a pair!

                          Yeah, my friend and I were wondering if B&W tanked as a company since they made something they could sell at Best Buy...

                          Reminds me of Webroot - it was sold for the longest time (maybe still is) as an upsell at BB. I refused to use anything sold there, they mostly only sold/pushed the crap that was crap and had high margins.

                          It wasn't until I was at a SpiceCorp with Webroot giving a demo that I learned about their journaling feature and gave them a fair shake.. I like them a lot now.

                            I've been a B+W user for decades. Not my favorite, that's Totem, but very good.

                                  Had my ceiling wired from builder, and threw up a 7.1, working on the .2 to piss off the neighbors. Some nice Polk 3 ways.
                                  I still have to perfect the direction of some of them, but it's pretty freaking loud.

                                    I got a pair of older Castle Durham speakers from Goodwill... they are amazing. Apparently they sold for something like 700GBP new, picked them up for $80 because the fronts of the cabinets are cosmetically ruined (someone tried to glue, then nail on the screens).

                                        My surround system is all Polk speakers. Would love to have that second sub to really push all the air out of the room.
