I'm building a three-way speaker and have some questions about how similar projects have handled the wiring of the midrange. My build consists of 2235H, 2123H, and SEOS-12 with Denovo Audio DNA-360 compression drivers.
The 2123H is enclosed in it's own box. I'm debating between:
Drilling two holes in the back just large enough to accommodate the chosen wiring, and caulking them closed; then, that wire runs to the bottom of the cabinet.
Counter-sinking two binding posts https://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-bpa-38g-hd-binding-post-pair-gold--091-1245 (https://www.parts-express.com/dayton-audio-bpa-38g-hd-binding-post-pair-gold--091-1245)
A similar arrangement exists for the horn and compression driver, which I'm isolating inside its own box from the 2235.
On a related note: how is everyone securing the speaker wires running inside the cabinet? I don't want these vibrating with the 2235. I know that the fiberglass insulation would eliminate most banging against the cabinet edging, but I have curved sides in this design with holes in the curved bracing through which the wires will pass, and don't want these banging against the holes.
Thanks!
