    Amp build for a young DJ

    Yep that is it. I appreciate the CC suggestion, but cashflow is at a real minimum, both for his mom as well as for me. So for now, Im gonna try and build something for him.

    Amp build for a young DJ

    Forgot to say, Im pretty dandy with the iron on method of pcb making. More than willing to give a robust build a try, provided parts are easy to get. Dont see his pic here, but his name is here

    Amp build for a young DJ

    Awe all So yesterday I visited my sister out out in Strandfontein, I havent seen her in roughly two years. Long story. I then found out my nephew is a dj, and goes by the name DJ Joshie R, quite talented if i may say so. Was anxious to see his setup. But I was rather dissapointed by what I saw...

    Help needed choosing a 12v power supply

    i second the pc psu. Works a charm, more than enough juice for that radio, and then some. if you haev one, its a simple matter or putting a switch betweenn the green and black wires next to it. Thsi will act as a on off switch for the psu. If the psu does have a switch, just bridge the green and...

    Mitre joints on speaker cabs

    Assembled the cabs, and vene though shiners method works well, the wood ain't cut to well. Will have to do something about it, maybe round the front and back edges and fill. Maybe next time, if I do something like this again, I will try and get them to cut the mitre at a 45.5deg instead.

    X-LS Encore Speaker build

    depending on the radius, its not difficult at all. This is a 8mm radius if i remember correctly. Again, if you are using contact glue its easy. you will get some splitting as it bends, but that can easily be sanded down.

    X-LS Encore Speaker build

    If its plain veneer with no glued backing, use cold glue, apply to both pieces, position and use a old electric iron set to hot and apply firm preasure. Working from a corner to get rid of any air bubbles. Works a charm. Before using the iron, you have plenty of time to reposition the piece, and...

    Mitre joints on speaker cabs

    Started this this evening, using Shonvers method. Due to the length, and the limited space I have, I had could only do two pieces at a time. So side and a top, and bottom and a side. Will then put these two pieces together, then fit the rear and eventually the front. Had a bit of an issue...

    Mitre joints on speaker cabs

    I have done a few cabs thus far, but none of them has had mitre joints. For the past two nights I have been staring at these cabs, wondering how on earth Im going to assemble them. Inittially thought of using soem sort of 90 deg L bracket to hold everything in place will th eglue sets. I dont...

    What does one paint veneer with?

    depending on what yo uare going to use to pait the veneer, and what it has been stuck down with. It could react in a bad way, causing veneer to lift. Maybe applying a wood sealer first, then painting

    Car subs or other drivers for DIY Sub build

    Unfortunately this is  the case here in SA, and typical in the area I stay in lol. You could however look at the likes of Rockford Fosgate, JBL, JL Audio etc. But beware, these are not going to be cheap in the 15" range. Even th 12's can reach a hefty price
