Dear Friends,
Since yesterday was a Sunday and I had nothing to do, sat down to built myself a pair of fullrange speakers using a small 4" philips driver and 10" fullrange driver of unknown brand both of which were salvaged from different stereo sets junked by some of our Tea Estate managers who left after retirement.
Nothing great in the looks department as it is not yet complete but the sound --- it is a different ball game altogether. The mids are warm on your face but mind you not P.A. type and the highes are sweet and fatigue free bass is there but not by the bucketloads sweet tuneful bass.
No specific calculations were done for the enclosures as no T/S parameters were available but maybe I am lucky just to arrive at the suggested box volume / baffle size by fluke.
Used a DENON PMS 520 amplifier and my laptop running foobar2000. Some more finishing to be done. No crossover used at all.
Posting some pics of the amp and the speakers
