Is anyone thinking about building Walsh drivers?


I'm hoping to start a discussion that is not charged with emotion that may be useful to folks seeking to build Walsh transmission line drivers.
Any of you out there played with this seriously?

Jerry, crickets for sure, although some times things pick up and move along nicely on things about Ohms, then tapers back off for awhile. Enjoyed your threads over on the "other DIY forum".

Hi Map, how are you doing these days?
Not sure how many DIYers in general hand out in these parts.
Frazeur I am doing well. Getting to listen to a lot of good music and work out 6 days a week amid all the rest. My wife and I will have a 25th anniversary coming up and kids are doing well in school. That's the jist of it. Best always!
Jedinite...*G* Uh, that's my file. As for the conus, that's what started me out, some 9+ years ago. (Long story, you don't need to be put to sleep by it... ;)...)

Mapman, you might take a look @ that file. *L* Meanwhile, I've moved on. Currently goofing with building a 3 way version ( T/M/W, vertically stacked) just because I don't know of anyone trying to do so.

Frazeur, then you already know about my 'idiosyncrasy' re Walshs'. Just thought I might pay this site a visit to see if there's anyone I haven't *L* 'infected' with my 'condition' yet. "Call me...irresponsible.."

As for DIYers....*L* Well, one never knows. I don't, and I'm absolutely shameless when it comes to trolling for input from y'all. *G* Insight from input can come from anywhere; IMHO it helps to get out and cast about in 'other waters' to see what happens.

...and it passes the time...*G*
Map, glad all is well, and congrats on the 25th sir! I still enjoy the pics of your Ohms, especially the pair in F cabinets. Always liked those! Glad too that your Bel Cantos are doing such a sterling job for you as well.

Jerry, yes I am certainly aware of the "Walsh Affliction", it catches some of us often.
FWIW their was a DIY room at the last audio show I went to (no Walsh speakers unfortunately) and I came away thinking how silly the DIYers sound made many very expensive offerings there seem. I'm surprised but happy they were allowed there. The DIY stuff hit way above what one might expect but was certainly not pretty. Lots of pretty impressive looking gear as a whole there though.

The thing I like about Audiogon is that it sets a high standard for home music and sound quality. Where it becomes interesting then is all the different recipes out there for good sound at all price points.
