Nailbender Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Klipschaholics, I'm reconstructing my Cornscalas out of solid oak now. For aesthetic reasons only. They are currently birch plywood. I've now come to the motorboards. Components I have are Crites woofers, Fastrac horn w/ Atlas PD-5VH driver and Crites CT-125 tweeters. The crossover is a B3 I believe. The only change to the original dimension is 18" deep cabinets instead of 16" in case I change the mid horns & drivers. Now the questions... What ports would work best? What port shelf depth should I use? Should I use some sound absorbing padding or foam inside the cabinet? I think my next mod will be AP 12 600 & ES5800. Any constructive advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HankC Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 You may want to re-think the "Solid Oak". I know others will chime in here as well. Solid Wood shouldn't be used in Speaker Cabinet constrution due to the ever expanding and contracting properties of wood. Just my two cents worth. Good luck on your project.. Post plenty of pictures !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
