I've found the best combination is 1"MDF for the sides, tops and bottoms with Baltic Birch for the front and back baffles. All internal bracing is Baltic Birch as well as any internal mid-bass boxes....

Correct PoE would not be found in most home modem/routers.
The PoE injector will be fine one cable from your existing modem/router to the PoE injector then the other cable out to the EV-C with...
Looking at the DCi amplifier manual it does state that volume control is available through the GPIO port but then no mention of compatible devices.
The physical connection to the DCi’s (GPIO)...
The DHCP server should not be an issue as the device your ISP provider installs in your house is a switch/DHCP server.
What you have to watch out for is how many physical Ethernet ports are on...
Hi Robertg
I’m going to throw my 2 cent in here and I’m also as new as you are to this stuff, trying to get my own M2s up and running.
I think you have miss-interpreted the implementation of...
I ran in to this BS when I was looking to buy K2s not with a dealer but with Harman. I had been drooling over the E2s but due to size/weight and cost were beyond my budget, for some reason in Canada...
Thanks for you post Rob; I know how much time it takes to write these up.
I’ve viewed most of the video training on the Harmon web site regarding Audio Architect, Crow Amps and BBS gear. Your...
Thanks everyone @Champster, @Grumpy, @Wayner and @Mitchco for your input.
I’ve actually been working towards a Digital M2/SUB18 system for a few years now and finally decided “What are you waiting...
I’m new at this M2/BSS stuff and have read most of the threads in the various forums, I just need some clarity with my thinking.
Is it possible to use a BSS BLU-160 and load both the M2 and SUB18...
With the 2245 you’ll be able to get better bass at any level that with a 2235. I find even at low levels the 2245 is really good, you really don’t need a lot of power. The only thing you have to be...
If you have the space and can find a 2245 build the 4345, the overall sound is more open and effortless than the 4344. The bass response from the 2245 is far superior to the 2235. I have built both...
Hi Manley
Option 4 is to use the original JBL 4344 MKII cross-over, do not use the cross-over I posted in my 4344-clone thread (your option 3). Based on members comments I went back and replaced...
I’ve built more than a couple of cross overs so here are my thoughts on the subject others will have their own take on the subject.
It comes down to how easily materials are to source, anything...
Hi Rob
I just use a sharp and sturdy box cutter with straight edge and a scrap piece of wood under where your cutting. I've never had an issue with 10 mil paper backed veneer. The tip of the blade...
It is actually mentioned in the K2 Technical Manual (Service)

Here's a picture of the K2s woofer mounting plate - notice there is no gasket. But the cabinet is heavily braced.
I've use Contact Cement in the past but it does dry up and fail after a number of years. Go to Home Depot and get some thing like "VELCRO Velcro Extreme" I've used these type of product in the past...
Ian, thanks for the link.
Very interesting approach to a sound system, I would have to agree with the presenter at 20K it would be hard to beat, assuming it lives up to its description which I...
The pre-amp is a KRELL EVO 202 with a KRELL 525 CD Player, the amps I'm using are KRELL EVO 600s & a 302. Its been about three months without the pre-amp and I have not felt the need to reinsert it.
I’ve just recently gotten into streaming FLAC files from my computer to a DAC then directly to the amplifiers. The CD player and pre-amplifier have been eliminated from the play back chain. I’m...
Hi Daz
I posted this on another thread sometime ago:
I have my K2 S9900s in a tri-amp bi-wire configuration and the improvement in sound is basically zilch. The only reason I did this was ...
The more I ponder it I think it comes down to HCSGuys astute comment:
“The 1500AL subs have the best definition I have ever heard in a sub, though I do have to add a little EQ on the bottom end”
...
I would agree with HCSGuy I have the K2 S9900 with a pair of Array 1500s. I find the Array 1500s slower that the 1500AL woofers, I put that somewhat down to the amplifiers KRELL EVO 600 versus what...
It’s been my experience (10 pairs to date) that used 2123Hs never sound as good as a 2123 with a new re-cone. If the 2123 doesn’t sound right it will sink your hole project as it plays a very...
I don't own a set of S9800s but I have 2235s in a 4344 and 2245s in a 4345 but the 1500AL-1s are still the best woofers in the house. I find the 2245s to be exponentially better than the 2235s and...
