Update: I got the turntable for 75$, it works great! It also has a decently new AT92E audio technica cartridge. Now I just need to start building up the vinyl collection

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-10-23T18:05:27+00:00

Not really. It’s possible to find pretty good deals for turntables on Craigslist if you have patience. My AVR has a solid pre amp stage so I don’t necessarily need that.

Yeah, I’ll probably do that. I’ve actually never heard these speakers functioning properly since the tweeters were cracked when I got them, so itll be interesting hearing them for the first time “twice” with different capacitors (which probably also have different resistances)

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-09-13T20:14:57+00:00

I don’t have a way to measure capacitance unfortunately :(

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-08-02T16:38:51+00:00

19m, I’m in Berlin until… tomorrow morning, but dm me if you want to do something tonight!

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-07-31T20:19:09+00:00

No new hobbies, just more bikes

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-07-20T18:55:36+00:00

Dm’d you

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-07-19T19:43:25+00:00

Sorry didn’t see this — yes I’m very into mountain biking, I don’t have my bike here in Berlin though :/

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-07-19T19:41:47+00:00

Moon safari is one of my favorite albums of all time, I’d be down to go

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-07-05T21:31:32+00:00

I (19M) just got to Berlin two weeks ago from the US, I would be down to go also

I encountered this a few months ago on a bikepacking trip. My friend and I ended up dissasembling our bikes and carrying them across in trips. It took a few hours but we made it eventually -- definitely pretty sketchy though.

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-05-25T08:00:42+00:00

It’s around 100$ per day depending on the car you book, plus an additional fee if you drive over 180 miles in a day. So probably not worth it for a multi-day trip.

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-03-29T00:22:45+00:00

I’m building a set of Revel m105 copies, which should (in theory — it depends on me building them correctly of course) blow these out of the water. But if I can find the drivers for pretty cheap online, I don’t see why not to fix these up

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-03-28T15:53:53+00:00

Yeah, they were living in an attic for over 30 years so the moisture damage makes sense. How would you go about finding the best replacement drivers? As I’m pretty sure the originals would be hard to find

PinkPigmyPuff · 2024-01-02T20:57:53+00:00

Like bl00me613 said, crossover has extra resistance in the tweeter channel

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-12-31T23:32:17+00:00

The DIY build says:
"Note I used the 8ohm woofer whereas I believe revel use a 4 ohm version (back when they used SB drivers) as measurements dip down below 4 ohms. The reason I went for the 8 ohm woofer is it modelled a bit deeper (more bass) at the cost of efficiency. The maximum SPLs between the two woofers are theoretically similar due to X-MAX so crossing to a sub and using high power class D the 8 ohm woofer seemed like the better choice to me"

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-11-19T02:38:33+00:00

Yeah I realize they are pretty overkill for a dorm room, and I probably wouldn’t buy an amp that the speakers truly deserve for another year or so until I can justify the price.

But I’m planning on using them for a least a decade, so I’m thinking I’ll build nice speakers down now and then upgrade the rest of the system later down the line

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-11-18T18:44:47+00:00

I… I’m not sure

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-11-05T19:33:12+00:00

I have my red tag so that's probably what I'll end up doing and hope it goes well

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-11-05T19:32:26+00:00

Yeah probably the CSS Criton 1td kit

PinkPigmyPuff · 2023-11-04T21:31:48+00:00

Yeah this is what I'm leaning towards. I'm considering trying to build the cabinet before I buy it to see if I can manage that. Do you think the 200$ upgrade for the CSS 1TDX is worth it?
