[QUOTE="Phil Graham, post: 24422, member: 430"] Re: Steering advice for those serious about DIY speakers. Its not that I am not optimistic, it is merely that a cheap speaker, built out of lower end parts, would be a lower learning curve point to get started for people to mess around. Really, a much better way to approach people actually learning about speaker design would be to offer a kit, and then design a crossover for it "in the open" on the forum, and then everyone could implement that. Something simple and cheap, like an 8" and a small compression driver. If you were able to put something like that together, I could see potentially getting involved, and maybe Curtis List, too. People learn, and they would also get some sense of the skillset needed to do passive design well, which likely means more design business for us. Let me suggest Charlie Hughes and Curtis for that eventuality. I would be interested in that as a way to help the project, it seems like an interesting way to get involved. [/QUOTE]
