Good point Ivica - this afternoon i'll mount the Velcro for the lenses and they get on;)

I absolutely agree David!
It is a balance: you want it done to be able to experience the final product, but still it has to be done right. More times than i can count i've rushed through only to...
Thanks Ian!
I am very pleased so far!
Next weekendt i'll build box number 2, and then move on to trim, painting and veneer-work.

So - the summer is here and tiny Denmark has seen some weeks with nothing but sunshine.
Luckily a few days of clouded weather and a cold wind forced me into the basement where I could proceed with...
Thanks Ian!

So, I've built myself a new workshop at my parents house - it is a great little place, with all the necessary tools and the space for leaving the project, when I do something else. It is in Jutland...
No worries Ian - it is not a first priority right now, so take all the time you need!
Finding 2121As is not an easy task, and i have a substantiam build Job ahead of me before that :)
Thank you DES-1 - I hope to get building later this month, and I'll post images here when construction starts.

Again, in my mind JBL has been...

Okay so wattage is not important, but the impedance is right?
8 ohms for the UHF and 16 Ohms for horn and 10”?

the UHF should be 50W and the 2 others 100W models - the 50W should be 8 ohms and the 100W 16 ohms?
I...
I am a very happy guy - CAD drawings for the enclosures are in the works now. Along with allocating time for the build process. I can’t help but think I am underestimating the scope in ny head.
I know a guy ;)
these are from the Internal Harman Kardon Netherlands System - so a European service partner should be able to get them ;)
It was on Ebay, in the Netherlands. Ian pointed me towards them, and then it was just clicking buy now ;)
Today is the last day before easter-holiday and I was lucky that all my incoming packages arrived hours before I was to leave for my parents house.
