    Hi-Tech backyard speaker building

    Hi all, I am currently building 2 pair of L150's. One pair are L150A's the other L150's. I have spent the last 12 months collecting all of the drivers and now I am ready to throw em together. I was going to keep the project as close to the orinal as possible but I have decided to use Rimu wood veneer which is a New Zealand native and fits my decor better than walnut. I have used a CNC router for the panel cutting and just to make life real easy. I will post pics as the project comes along.

    Allan.

    box building

    Here are some shots of the test baffle I ran just to check all was ok. All of the drivers are recessed. Also pics of the first build ups.

    I also needed to do some refoaming and even needed to put a new spider on a 128H. I had never tried either job before.

    Wow Allan, Nice project and looking great so far.

    That CNC is one sweet piece of equipment to die for!

    Here I use a CNR which is a Carpenter Navigated Router but it gets the job done in probably 100 X the man hours.

    I will keep watching your project progress.
