Nice website Thomas! There aren't many sites out there about MMG mods.About 15 years ago I built several subwoofers for a friend who was doing home theaters, and I used Woodstyle enclosures like yours...but in oak. A local guy had bought a bunch of the enclosures and was selling them to me cheaper than I could build something similar. I used Swan woofers in them, with a vent in the back and added some internal braces.
Back to the MMGs, what made you decide to use .75 inductors rather than 2.2? I've seen diagrams using both, but I went with the larger.
Hi,I've never played with any Maggie mods before. The MMGs are actually my 5.1 rear effects speakers that I decide to use for some experimentation. So I did the mods on the cheap using parts that were available from my spare parts box.
I really like what you did! Frankly, I was considering the same thing - mounting MMGs on a pair of REL Q200 subwoofers. At present, I only have one Q200 though. My home theater sub is a big Klipsch. Anyway, I even considered a Parts Express box for the second MMG. As they say, great minds think alike!One day I saw some tables that had some really solid steel stands and a swiveling top and that little light bulb in my head started glowing. I had to modify them heavily, but they came out great and are seriously stable. I like the ability to adjust the toe-in without having to actually move anything.
