This will be my first foray into the DIY speaker building process. That is the reason I wanted to purchase a complete kit and build the cabinets myself. After reading up on the idea the value per dollar seems to be there. Zaph says the SR71 to his ears will compete with anything up to $2000 and since the parts from Madisound are $389 I thought this would be a good starting point for my new addiction. At this point I am using a pair of Usher V601 with a Parasound 5125 amp, Marantz SR7200 for my processing only and a Cayin CDT 23 player.
Nice looking system. I am thinking of building the Zaph SR71 stand mount speaker system. I wanted to know if you bought your kit from Madisound and if there was any extra tweaking needed to the speakers or crossover. Do you have any pictures of the speaker build or any tips that could be helpful. Thanks.
