Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

For fantja...a few more pics

The custom spikes I had made for the Avantis.

It's been so long since I used these, I forgot how they went together. Now I'll have to dis- and reassemble them.

The holder I made for the MR/treble x-over board. The switch with its big black knob was a work in progress, since removed.

A later view from the other side.

The three cables into the cabinet feed the three separate drivers. The lower-MR cable is half of an Audioquest Rocket-88; the multicolored woven cable is made with Neotec Teflon-insulated UP-OCC-copper solid conductors. The thicker three-strands* (per pole) cable drives the MR while the tweeter is driven by the 2-strand**.

The bundle crossing it is interconnect, mostly Audioquest in this pic. The round, white-insulated cable on the carpet is 4-solid-strand 14g. (netting 11g. per pole) to the four bass drivers and is driven by a separate line-level low-pass filter and amp. Currently that function is handled, very well, IMO, by a 350W.-into-4 plateamp.

* Probably 18-, 20-, and 23g.
** Probably 20- and 23g.
