Notes: These are actually made from a cinder blocks, cool idea to add the wood trim, yet another I want for my desktop system...

Can't be much volume there, would take a certain kind of driver, but I like it!

I restored the speakers a couple years ago, Infinity RSII
Amp is a B&K 4420 modded my musical concepts
Pre is a harman kardon citation 17
Phono pre is a vista audio 2
TT is a custom Denon dp 1000 (least amount of electronics) with a jelco 10 inch
Cart 2m black

ha, now that I wrote this I forgot it’s all in my sig…

My apologies also. I am viewing these posts on my phone. When the phone is held vertically, the signature is not readable. If I had turned the phone to landscape mode I would have read that for myself without having to ask you.

Looks very organic. Not sure if it reminds me of an ear----or something female(Did I say orga(sm)nic?). You decide.

That is utterly beautiful

So, TerryO, what's happened to Dan since Adire went tits up?

Bose Acoustic Wave Cannon

A subwoofer with an attitude...an imposing 12 foot black tube, housing a 12 inch LOUDspeaker.

Saw one of those in a banquet hall/buffet in the Philippines

Huh?

The picture quoted above is what happened the first time a Victrola played Ted Nugent

My pleasure, except I did not get a lot of reponses for a while in this thread, then this week I realized I have been posting late at night PST, so my posts would not have been seen until the next day for many of you in earlier time zones. And, by the next day, my posts were way Way WAAAY back in the "New Posts" queue and might be missed by many...OOPS! :sigh: I posted a whole lot of cool designs over the past many months, hope you all get a chance to see them. :thmbsp:

That's why I jumped back to the beginning, unfortunately many of the images are no longer available but the ones that are... Interesting indeed!

El Pipe-O by Nelson Pass

Said to be inspired by a smoking apparatus used by Nelson's roommate in college.

I would really love to hear those

Given that's an 8" driver, that thing is HUGE!

Also the backwave from the horn emerges 5 minutes later than the direct cone motion.

 

[Lavane]

Also the backwave from the horn emerges 5 minutes later than the direct cone motion.

Smaller and cheaper than building an echo chamber room for recording.

5 minutes?

 

[kfa888]

5 minutes?

Sarcasm

 

[theophile]

5 minutes?

An eternity....

 

[timofred]

An eternity....

An that's a mighty long time.

 

[theophile]

An that's a mighty long time.

And yet, no time at all...

The thing that is forgotten about eternity is that it includes now.
