I'm about midway through the building of the Two Pi towers and I'm begining to think that I've crossed the line to massive overkill. A hundred dollars in parts and thousand dollar cabinets! Oh well, pretty speakers sound better, right? ;) I'm having fun and learning a few things as I go. This is my first experience with veneering. The paper backing is fun. The veneer sands but the paper folds! Nothing a razor knife won't fix! I'll post a few pics of the building process when I have some more time. Also, has anyone used Alpha Core inductors? What's the prefered method of hookup? Thanks, Jerrod
I replaced the Eminence coils in my Theater 4's with Alpha Core and like them. I can't say there was a profound improvement but there was some. The larger one on the woofer made more of a difference but time has made me forget the subtleties of sound difference. A search of the archives will turn up some initial comments of mine. I used an awl to poke a hole in the ribbon leads and drilled and screwed the leads into the circuit boards. I've heard of people soldering wire leads onto the ribbons afer folding the ribbon over the wire and lightly crimping.
