I would like to say I am thinking about building a open baffle speaker from GR Research.
Is it time in your hobby to build a speaker kit?
Not to save money, but to learn what you are talking about. Get your hands dirty. Touch all the parts. Can you screw? Can you solder? Want to experience something most of your audiophile friends never will?

Do this to have fun. Do this to roll your own crossover out of exotic Teflon and copper foil.
Best,
Erik

Good choice @N80! The stand mounted version, or the floor stander? Both are made with the same parts, just a different enclosure (plans for both monitor and transmission-line enclosures are provided with the kit). Great Neo 3 pdr tweeter, Danny Richie-designed and custom-made woofer/midrange driver, and audiophile quality x/o parts (caps, resistors, etc). Danny is well known in the loudspeaker industry, doing x/o consulting work for other companies. He also offers mods for mass-market speakers built to a price point (and therefore compromised), such as the Elac's. His mods "correct" some engineering choices with which he disagrees. |

This is a bit expensive, but it is a true audiophile bargain. They keep inching up the pricing, but it is still a steal. The parts are worth more than the kit. It was designed by Jeff Bagby one of the best known DIY guys out there. Look carefully at the reviews and what they have been compared against. All very nice Morel Parts. https://www.parts-express.com/solstice-mltl-reference-tower-speaker-kit--300-708 |
