Retired, living in small market town, always into music, worked for a loudspeaker manufacturer many years ago, play a couple of instruments, keen photographer, and not really a sports person, except for snooker and F1 motor racing. I've helped with the PA for the couple of churches where I have been a member over the last 25 years.

I'm waiting for an offer from Max, I can ask him for a second pair as well when I recieve the offer :)
I found a post about a year old where your tuning Peter's DIY60 with a miniDSP. And then I had asked a question about using a miniDSP. Post #614 on the 60 Degree DIY / page 41. You replied with the miniDSP has I/O level limitations. Consumer I/O levels.

So I'm wondering, what would be ideal levels for output?

The reason I ask is because I think that maybe a miniSharc might be a better option. Then from the Sharc I can use DACs. I'm hoping that a DAC might give me better output levels. Can I get your opinion on this? What should I look for in output levels?

Hi Johnny, I've found the OpenDRC boxes need about a 10 db boost to bring them up to pro levels. I guess really anything that converts, what is it, -10dBV consumer to +4 dBu ....I'm using an X-32 rack for this but am thinking about replacing the Xrack with a low cost Beh mx882

If you find DACs you like please let me know
Ben -

I'm offering $375 for 2 sennheiser e935's and on obey 70 in case. I'm at a commercial address for shipping to New Haven CT.

Can send paypal with no fees (or I'll compensate for them).

Hi Peter,
Thankyou for the excellent effort in the design of the 60 degree ( and 90 ) speaker on a stick.
I have the pleasure of helping the local school with events and would like to build the speakers for events on the school field ( fireworks night etc. )
I have a couple of questions if you dont mind.
I have some BMS 12n620 laying unused from another project. Do you think that they may work as a substitute for the 12" driver or does it compromise the design. I would hate to waste the effort you have put in with a less than optimal driver choice.

I am talking with my local (UK ) BMS dealer about the possibility of upgrading my existing 4 BMS coax's to the 4594 HE variant.

May I please have a copy of the cad file so I can use my local CNC guy ?

I look forward to hearing from you.
My best regards
Matt
Just signed up hopefully can get some great advice and production tips also don't forget to check out my mobile disco website.
Hi Peter,
do you happen to have a link to the guy in Birmingham who built and measured your 212 DIY cabs by any chance?
I am quite interested in this little box hence would like to get my ears on one asap..
Peter from NL unfortunately cant demo them atm due to storage/noise issues so i guess my best bet is the one in Birmingham unless you are aware of any other builts in central Europe?

Thanks in advance and kind regards

Hi Peter,
greetings from Germany. I'm in the market for new speakers and I found your amazing DIY 90° project here in the forum. Your design brings all that to the table, what I would like to see in a box that I would need for a fix install.

In addition I'm an author for a German pro audio magazine ( http://www.tools4music.de ) and I just spoke with my chief editor about your design. He came up with the idea: "why not to write a story about building this box?"
That's why I would like to ask you, if you would be cool with that, if we feature your design in our magazine?

To be honest, I would like to try a different HF driver. BMS driver are very expensive over here, so I would like to go with the RCF ND950 oh the HF950 instead (I could get the ND950 for 170,- Euro). I has a 4" voice coil and should be able to go as low as the BMS. I would like to install your DIY 90° in a 300pax rock venue, that is run by a friendly society, so budget is always a problem. My idea is to build the box, do the measurements and write a story about it...with all the fails and pittfalls I might stumble into:-)
Tools4Music has NTIi FX100 measurement system and my speaker controller Kung Fu is quite strong, so I have high hopes to get this thing working.
What do you think about it?

Best wishes
