Ed's new bookshelf speakers. Suggestions welcome. And a fun poll.

Hey Ed ;
A tiny bit off'audio but for nice dress-up, You can't beat an '87 Cents' Store, purchase a pair of Storage-Totes, the things look like stiffer version, of CANVAS shop bags, etc.
Point is, those 10 inch cubes (28 cm), with bottom panel omitted, make 'attractive' little covers...; THEN, You insert 'Ugly' from 1992, speaker, with, I don't know...Bat Shit stains, or something...but insert with that 'thinner' fabric bottom, as Your sound output grill.
In other words, looking good, cheap, and 'cubes' would be perched up on any file cabinet or whatever, (blaring Santana!)
I think was 2 .39 $ at that thrift store.

Since you sound like you are handy, Parts Express has a number of 2-way ported speaker kits. I built their downward firing subwoofer and it came out very good.

Nice. Thanks. What a great website.
BTW, the .au version of that domain is for tractor parts. Who doesn't like tractor parts?

I suspect the Russians now object to tractor parts.
All of their ported kits have the port on the back. I was thinking of moving the port to the front but that project is on hold since I already have a pair of acceptable bookshelf speakers, and I suspect gaining a significant improvement over them would require a 3-way design anyway.
