Welcome to the Pi Speakers Open Forum. As the name suggests - it's an open form. What that means is that you're free to discuss any subjects that you want. The forum's primary purpose is to be a "sounding board" for owners, users and builders of Pi speakers, but there will be little moderation of content, other than what is provided by general forum rules. What I mean by this is that while we're here to discuss your best options for building, buying or using Pi speakers, you are free to talk about other speaker designs, amplifiers and system components, tube vs. transistor technologies, or even camshaft selections for your car. Just enjoy yourselves and share a few of your thoughts. Maybe someone else will give you something new to think about along the way!

Hi Wayne, Things are moving very quickly in a positive way. Congratulation to this forum. While you must be busy responding to all kinds of thread, don't forget about my four Pi and one Pi? Yes, I am the one from the east! Cheers, Stanley

Cool deal! With my new 2A3 Amplifiers, high effeciency is the goal. The very best I have achieved were Klipschorn bottoms made from 1 1/4" particleboard, coated with 34 LBS of Clear RTV. I loaded them with Gauss 15" using a 2226H cone assembly mated with Gausses' Motor and voice coil. Tricky converting the cones. The TAD Mids were driving some 300 hZ mid horns (Fiberglass and thick) and the electrovoice T-350. I hand wound all my crossover inductors and resistors!. The capacitors were Sidereal. These gave me 105.5 dB (1w1m)and a 3 dB down point at 29hZ. I have currently some very old Magnavox 20 watt alnico 15" that I would love to implement. They give a solid 102dB 1W1M and these are the good ones. I have some 350hZ mid horns, One University tweeter. All I need is mid drivers, and a good pair of tweeters. FS on the Magnavox (a'la CTS) are 38hZ. I do plan to give these drivers a shot....But I also have a speakerlab Mid driver laying around as well. Hope to be an active member of this forum.
