First, thanks to econotweaks.com for generously sharing the info for the DIY version of their DETAIL MAGNIFIER. This is probably nothing new for most of you but was a great project for me. After looking at the schematic I realized even I could build them. I took advantage of that generosity and built four of them. The end result is a cleaner more detailed sound. Really.
I used 1" x 1/2" copper tubing for the housing. Twelve (12) gauge silver wire for the leads. Audience Auricap XO .022uF /600V caps. Dale mil-spec 10 ohms 1/2 watt resistors. Rat Shack silver bearing solder. After soldering was completed I stuffed the housing with rope caulk since I forgot to buy silicone caulk. I then wrapped it up tight with a generous application of copper tape. I then tested one on the right speaker for several hours and concluded that I had done everything right. A very nice audible improvment.
Again, thanks to enconotweaks.com.
Hear's to yah,
