Non_Techie,

The last I enquired with IWAI, they replied they were not interested in retail quantities. Did you contact any of their retailers? BTW, where are you based?

 

[manofernando]

IWAI is the OEM for onida. I once thought to build a active sub woofer using my KY theatre sub woofer.

Hi GR...i asked the IWAI guys they are willing to sell the quantities..in retail as well...i am at chennai...

Thats great,
Just pick the drivers and get going. Build 3 way for front channels and 2 way for the rest. My driver choices would be dome tweeter (for all Ts), 3" alu driver (for all Ms) and 8" for woofers. The driver sizes I mentioned enable you to have a big overlap in the transition region which helps you to integrate them well.

Fronts: 3way MTMWW,
Center: 2 way MTM
Surrounds: 2way TM

Start by doing a stereo setup, you could start with the surrounds first. Once you have success there, you could go for the center followed by the fronts.

If you get it right, You could enjoy such a system for years to come.

Good Luck,
Goldy

[goldyrathore]

That Kit is not worth even if its free. It looks like the board of a car cassette player.

 

[Non_Techie]

What eventually happened ? Did anyone buy the Iwai speakers and try them out ?

 

[saheb11123]

I think the project is dead...

 

[Rud31]

Any update on operations of IWAI? Do they deal with retail orders or is it just wholesale for them?

 

[hifiramr]

They are operational they deal with retail too you can contact them via email :- [email protected]

[hifiramr]

Got response from them after my last post here. Instead of entire catalogue, they'll share price only of items I quote to them, which I did last night itself. Now awaiting their further response.

 

[hifiramr]

ok thats great you need to transfer the amount first then they will make it also it would take some time I think might be two weeks

I think @Hari Iyer has some IWAI based TL build a couple of years back and had some good feedback. Tagged him here.
