[QUOTE="Steve Payne, post: 50022, member: 231"] Re: My recent ventures into DIY audio... Building a "point source" box using off the shelf components is a fun and challenging learning experience. A little experimenting, tweaking and patience can yield reasonable results in situations that are not critical. Here's a little test for any of us homebrew builders. Take your best sounding effort. Put two of them next to each other with the backs touching. Now start spreading the fronts apart with the backs still touching until you find the angle where they are transparent in their coverage patterns and the frequency response sounds smooth and consistent everywhere within the combined horizontal coverage pattern. The search for the holy grail. This is what separates the big boys from the rest of us. [/QUOTE]
