All this talk about the Studio One Pi motivated me to pull my One Pi towers out of my cavernous speaker storage warehouse (a small upstairs bedroom:) and set them in the system for a few days. I have to admit these speakers are hard to beat just as they are with one 8" woofer. They probably woulnd't fare as well as most high end speakers in an anechoic chamber test, but it a real room they sound very "right" - tight and reasonably extended bass, warm midrange, just enough treble sparkle to let you know they are quality speakers, and no hard edges anywhere. Anyway, I have all the parts for a couple of other projects including enclosure refinishing for a pair of Cornwalls, so I believe I'll set this project on the back burner.

Somebody has asked about buying the existing One Pi tower enclosures, and if he does I'll be left with a pair of one Pi kits with no enclosure, and that will provide the motivation to buy another pair of Alpha 8's and get started on the dual woofer towers. In the meantime if anybody else in the Houston area wants the tower enclosures they're $100 with internal damping material, bi wire spkr terminals and ports installed (and your word you'll order the One Pi kits from Wayne).
