justinsweber Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I bought a set of Heresys for my office, but they were very rough... thus new cabs. I took liberty to add somw volume to the cabs... many said this was ill advised so I cut some extra MDF panels to reduce the internal valume back to ~1.9cu ft. The cabis noew 2.25 thick on the sides and 1.5 everywhere else. God Bless Home Depot. and the free cuts :-). Not having a work shape a little extra time there allowed me to build these without a saw. K700 metal horn, K55, APT80 tweeter, Bobs 12" LF driver and crossoevers. The Origonal Heresys have made there way to my office.. So rough I cant see them growing legs and leaving. These DIY Heresys had no home... were in my closet for a mo or so... My in-laws saw the Speakers and an old tuner... now they have a retro system on loan. Im told Im not getting them back, but... they are sadly mistaken. Just no room now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justinsweber Posted June 16, 2010 Author Share Posted June 16, 2010 The APT80 can bee seen from behind. Its the same Emenice tweeter used by many, but with a less developed horn... simple half circle. As this Heresy is really for near field listening a better horn seemed un-needed. Instalation was easy... 2 1/4" hole if I remeber right... cut from behind. The APT80 is $25 with horn... not bad at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
