I use apple music [normal and lossless] in the following setup: airport express-> optical-> minidsp -> rotel amps - > watt puppy replicas. I have no issues with either format in my setup, and not experienced any of the fuzzyness you describe. As others have suggested, try switching out each...

Absolutely unbelievable build Gerlach. Really well done thus far! I'm very excited to see the final product.

Thank you thank you thank you

Thank you. And despite the shape of the watt puppy?s looking vintage, it grows on you and now couldn?t imagine them looking any other way. I?m in two minds about covering them with speaker cloth inside some sort of frame.

After almost a year I finally finished the building of my Watt Puppy Replicas. The google drive link below shows the entire build process [as part1] which I am very happy with. :rubhands: Part2 is the DSP setup for active crossovers for these - which is still work in progress and will be shared...

Hi, I recently acquired a minidsp c-dsp and am hoping for some assistance as to the pinouts of the cable between the c-dsp and the remote. Either end is a RJ11 connector, and I can easily make up a cable, but I would need the pinouts fist, as if the pinouts are wrong I could possibly blow up...

Fantastic!! Thank you for sharing your work.

Outstanding!!!

I think you are saying that the phase doesnt change in the tweeter operational area [high frequency zone above 1kHz], so it will be say 180 degrees consistently throughout the tweeter operate frequencies. Will this 180 degrees be a different phase as if there was no cap at all in the tweeter...

Preamble: Many year ago I studies acoustics at Varsity and recall that caps in a series circuit introduce 90 degree phase shift in the output. Im doing a diy 2 way speaker and not using a passive  crossover but rather doing the crossover digitally in a minidsp. It is suggested that one places a...

I?m about to advertise selling my behringer truth monitors b2031a. They are active (amp built in with crossover before main amp stage) with 8+inch woofer drivers and solidly and excellently built. 150w woofer and 75w tweeter. See this review: http://noaudiophile.com/Behringer_Truth_B2031A/

They?re called Phoenix connectors and are avail locally as well. https://www.phoenixcontact.com/online/portal/za?gclid=Cj0KCQiArqPgBRCRARIsAPwlHoWZ95EfbI63SYWrT_RgksApPQWJ6zUQGSEkNX4H5-gc3Xcem5dYmpUaAkjvEALw_wcB

Next up is a pair of Wilson Watt Puppy Replicas. Driver secured from Mervin, and physical designs done with wood ordered and cut already. Will also run these with active DSP crossovers.

Thanks. Im really pleased with how smooth the Rustoleum finish is. I considered applying lacquer but it looks well finished without it, and so I left it.

The drivers used were a pair of Audax tweeters I had cannibalized from a pair of Soundcraft Spirit Absolute 2 monitors [hence still the name on the tweeter]. The midrange drivers are Faital Pro 5FE100 I got from the soundguy. The Crossover currently is setup at 2Khz symmetrical, but will fine...

And this is the finished assembled speakers getting ready for its first test drive. I will place it on the fireplace shelf where the depth was designed to match. And then in their final position:

With Brians recommendation, done the audio designs in bassbox pro first: Physical designs first done in sketchup for fitting and panel sizing: First fit of drivers after cutting/routing and then gluing panels together: I couldnt find any plastic pipe that matched the diameter of the port...

I completed my first DIY 2 way project last night. A great sense of achievement for me.  :Whoohoo: I thought I would share the build process with some pictures below. I am not using crossovers but rather minidsp active crossover with own amplification for each driver. The Linkwitz route I...

I would guess it?s baffle step and time aligning drivers that contribute to altering of sound.

Where does one get terminal plates/ binding posts and acoustic treatment-damping in Cape Town or South Africa?
