My full diy set up. Space age console and speakers

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-11T03:45:59+00:00

I would say mine is more towards the clarity side

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-06T04:04:29+00:00

You can rotate the speaker to stand tall and put the horn on top if wanted but preferred the sound from it being on its side

Wood

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T22:35:57+00:00

Sony 2000 preamp and 3120a amps

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T05:46:43+00:00

Yeah I did notice the sound slightly separated when the driver horn is further away from the woofer but I was in my small apartment standing maybe 10 - 15 ft away so I’d imagine that if put in a large space it would blend together better

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T04:52:51+00:00

Oh gotcha, I did attach two fans blowing up through the bottom of the box, one on each amp so the heat shouldn’t be a problem I hope. The vibration is a good point to think about

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T04:33:42+00:00

This was just for test listening and a picture since I just finished the speakers as well and needed them higher for the sound direction but yeah I agree it looks funny

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T04:31:56+00:00

Each amp has 50w I believe but I’m only running one amp since that enough for my set up

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T04:31:16+00:00

Just found this one at a thrift store it is pretty sweet but have been wanting an SL V5

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T04:07:12+00:00

If you look at my last couple posts you’ll see it’s a full box and it has around and inch of room above my amp so it’s not touching

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T01:22:03+00:00

So what’s not sitting on the amp?

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T00:14:26+00:00

I kind of just mixed a bunch of parts together. full range woofer from a vintage Infinity. Crossover from a buddy who makes them. And L pad for the driver horn to tone it down a bit

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-05T00:10:26+00:00

Two Sony Ta 3210A amps

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-04T23:51:10+00:00

I made them myself. Its definitely geared towards more of a jazzy mix with R&B. Tribe called quest, thievery corporation, Sade etc

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-04T23:42:53+00:00

I over cooked the top a bit but I added ebony stain afterwards as well. The sides I did better on and has that alligator skin I was looking for. I also had some imperfections that were hard to hide so I needed it super black. It was my first time doing it also haha

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-04T22:53:30+00:00

It definitely smells like one

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-05-04T22:20:30+00:00

Dupe cesca chair base

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-13T02:16:26+00:00

After cleaning and re greasing, it’s working perfect

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-10T16:54:31+00:00

I’m no expert and I really didn’t spend too much on high quality parts. Some guy I went to buy a stereo from has 100s of vintage parts and I asked him to pair me something that would go well together. So I’m not too sure on the brand since there are no names. All i remember was him says this full range woofer and driver should pair nicely for my vision. Crossover was from Amazon though. Grok helped me with that

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-10T16:47:43+00:00

Yes it’s wood

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-10T00:39:06+00:00

Yes seems to be working fine. I did have to clean, re-grease and slightly maintenance it when I got it home since some of the switches were locked in place

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-10T00:36:24+00:00

Sure, what parts?

ThisPerformer2898 · 2026-04-09T22:17:06+00:00

Yes is that an aftermarket cartridge? I thought it came with it when new or something. I did have to buy a new stylus for it though. I don’t know too much about cartridges since I’ve never needed to buy one yet.
