That's pretty cool - I'm anxious to see your pictures. The image in my mind is like what I see in the Hammer 12's. Kind of a suspended pod for the tweeter.I was watching the show on television last night about the custom Harley shop. Actually, there are a few of those shows these days, but anyway I was thinkin' how cool it would be to start making all sorts of custom speakers. Many of you guys already do that, and Bill has been making some custom stuff for me.
I was also thinking about artistic designs with interesting shapes. Some of the best woodworking I've ever seen has been right here from the guys on the forum. Absolutely excellent stuff. And it just crossed my mind that having some interesting concepts and shapes might be a nice touch too.
Tuning and configuring the system from an engineering standpoint is easy. It's probably one of the easiest machines to work with - Just a few linear motors, diaphragms and a handful of passive electrical parts. But the real challenge is having something that is aesthetically pleasing and interesting, and doing it in a system that is also engineered properly so that it is tuned right and configured well.
We want 'em to sound great and to look great too!
I guess I got off track a little bit, but your tweeter pod made me think about the Harley shop and custom jobs. I'm anxious to see pics!
