3 Way Active Standmount

[sunbeamgls]

After 12 months of elapsed time, I've finally finished my first speaker build.

There's a bit of woodwork cheating and a few ideas on design that have gone into it. There's no passive crossover as I've designed the crossover using Linn's digital Exaktbox system and therefore the speaker runs active.

A couple of pictures here and then full story at the link below. Happy to cover questions here, if I can

Green is on-axis, red is 30 degrees off axis - designed to be used with minimal toe-in. Ignore below 110Hz as that's mostly room. Graph is 1/12th smoothed.

Great musings, and nice to see another sealed bass loudspeaker system.

Very enjoyable reading, although as an "end-user-only" (happen to be 11 year old Ergo IX) a bit of a stretch for my brain. Your time, effort, and pleasure come through in the tale.

As James said, nice to not get the usual reflex ported job! Lovely blog and in particular I enjoyed the 'think this'll work, let's see if it does' approach.

It's "a multi-layer resin damped rigid absorption system"
