RE: Well The Elekit Is Done...Pic Included

My cabinets are the recommended plans from the distributor of the AN drivers. Since I didn't have a good table saw handy, I was fortunate enough to have Cain & Cain build them for me. They are from birch ply, with internal window bracing. I wired it with Audio Magic silver ribbon wire, Cardas binding posts, and experimented to get the correct amount of poly fill. The driver was very sensitive to wiring and varying amounts of dampening material. Ended up using the big port option, and tuned it to the mid 30 hertz range. At one time I had it measured it's in room output down to the high 30 hertz range, before it started rolling off. It's an interesting speaker, and fairly inexpensive way to try a high efficiency design.
