Best ever deal for loudspeaker kits.

Let's now talk shipping. As in when it is leaving American shores and sailing homeward bound?

I think everyone has had more than sufficient time to consider their options, and all would have made up their minds and ordered. If we delay this further, I am afraid the spiders on the drivers would rust by the time we finally receive them and the sonicaps would have dried.

The delay in payment of mine and cganeshprabhu's was on account of not being able to sent the remittance through paypal. We got the invoice on Saturday morning but no forex transactions take place on weekends.

I've left all the papers in the Bank and the remittance would've been made today. Waiting for confirmation from the Bank. No one else is left now. We can ask Danny to make the shipment now.

Another thing pending consideration by the participants is Tally3tally's suggestion. I request all the participants to voice their opinion in the link provided by him.

Let's give the Devil his dues. Danny's already given us a very sweet deal.

I agree with you but don't want to take a unilateral decision.

Voicing opinion in the google sheet would be really helpful.

We will go by the majority decision. So let's vote.

Hi Capt - I have added 3 more no rez sheets and spikes for the sub, and I realized that I should get the sonic caps.
Have made the payment and updated the sheet.

Now waiting for the shipment

Question for Danny:
Can the SW12-04 + 370 be used in a sealed box of 1 cu. ft.?

I believe my earlier post got lost so I am bumping it.

How small a sealed box can the 12-04 live with (if powered by the 370PEQ)?

What sort of response (response peak and F3) would I expect in say 1 cu. ft.?

 

[captrajesh]

Payment has been made for me as well as Cganeshprabhu.

Heres a question about the cabinet plans
Danny please confirm ( or if others have an idea please confirm)

the Encore bookshlef plans show three choices for the rear baffle
one is with the connectors directly on the rear baffle and two options are with the binding posts cup

now one is a larger cup the other is smaller
Holes have to made inthe cabinet according to the cup size

what cup size will you be shipping us

the big one - 3" dia with a 4.125" cbore
or the smaller one - 2.5inch dia with the 3.525" counterbore

please clarify this ASAP
this is important for cab design

@Danny Richie, hope the packing is complete. Awaiting pics of the kits.:licklips:

 

[anm]

^^ pics of packed kits? Sounds like fashion show in Saudi

 

[cha_indian]

Fashion show in Saudi arabia ?? LOL

btw , how much time will it take to arrive in India ?? Air or Sea ?

 

[exljp]

Hi Captain
Shouldn't we initiate the process for 'Chennai' made cabinets as the kits are ready for shipping? Cabinets can be ready by the time shipment arrives here.

 

[naren2512]

Dear Mumbaikars,

Do you guys think It will be wise to have the cabinets made from Chennai as anyways the kits will first come to chennai and then will have to be shipped to Mumbai, so why not get them fit into the cabinet and get the final item shipped to our homes?

or do you guys have some better idea of DIYing yourselves or having the cabinets built in somewhere in Mumbai itself?

Ali ( Magma ) - I am sure you can certainly help / guide us on deciding this

Regards,
Naren

Question for Danny:

Can the SW12-04 + 370 be used in a sealed box of 1 cu. ft.?

Thanks.

It can but it would force the amp to work a lot harder to maintain linearity. So you'd run out of head room faster.

1.5 cubic feet is recommended.

anyone can help on my crossover query?
http://www.hifivision.com/diy/19688-best-ever-deal-loudspeaker-kits-91.html#post343381

If you are talking about any of the X Series products then the crossovers are small enough to easily slide in through a woofer hole after the boxes are built.
