However, I don't want to exclude anything else which might truly belong on such a list, so I have decided to instead say "plus rap and possibly a few others." If it doesn't belong outright, Disco should at least get an honorable mention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of info around here on how to do things but very little on how not to. Maybe I ought to tig weld some caps in and really demonstrate how to avoid the inferior electrical qualities of solder compared to keeping it all copper. Oh, I think we have plenty of examples on how NOT to do things, but nothing involving TIG welding. That'd be a good addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good mig weld should suffice. Possibly a couple passes to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What gage wire was used inquiring minds want to know. O. Hurtz didn't concern himself with trivial things such as wire gauge, he knew the key to speaker design was maximizing power input ratings and generating heat. Did you notice how Mr. Hurtz responds to an unsupported assertion of Mr. Carver?
