Socket,
if you want to build some speakers for fun, Decware has some neat plans, including some cool folded horn subs and if you buy drivers from Madisound, they will usually have plans too.

I will check that out. I have been to seas wesite and they have a transmission line plans for a speaker they call thor, that use the w18 drivers. I found a retailer in canada and the drivers are 225. each plus 263. for tweeters.

Fantastic Indeed! You should be very proud.
I'm too lazy to reread the thread but I don't recall any explanation of the grill. Are they also home built and how are they attaching. They look great as well, right down to the tapered corners.
With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

The thread started out with a different title. The drivers are V3's from my M80's that were replaced with V2's. To my ears it sounds really good. The tweeter is from my VP100.
The grill i made with my router from 3/4 mdf ,i cut it down to 3/8 by laying piece's of 3/4 mdf around it routing it down. Grill cloth i got of ebay and used my hot glue gun.In retrospect i wish i hadnt cut the corners down as much. I used neodymium magnets. These magnets are super strong but it stll took a bunch becasue of the seperation between the ones in the cabinet and the ones in the grill.The grill needs a bit of support in the middle but im still postulating on what exactly to do.
Only comment i got at the AVScience diy forum was i should have put the tweeter closer to the mids. Sounds fine to me. Measurement will get done soon . Also forgot to add some filling,so that is on the todo list.
