Thaddeus Smith Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 i was looking for some sound in the garage ..got a printer for xmas and had just enough spare kg 3.5 parts laying around to build a speaker ..don't really care what happens to it, and with the box full of packing peanuts, it sounds a lot better than no sound at all. late night boredom for the win!

Moderators dtel Posted January 13, 2010 Moderators Share Posted January 13, 2010 ha! i'll sell it to you for $500 or build you one for $300 + $200 core charge... If you would make it much smaller and use a bose box you would probably pick up some extra customers from the more affluent neighborhoods !

Blvdre Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Amy may close this thread anytime now. You're right, pretty soon TS will be offering up his production horn box speakers for sale to any and all members. He can save manufacturing costs by installing the drivers in USPS flat rate boxes.
