Long Term-110W.
Have are some pictures, if there is interest, i will continue.

Quite impressive. Third picture is showing some haze on the polish. Is it because of the camera flash or the polish itself?

I see you have oppo/marantz combo. many here will condone.

Did you do some measurements on your speakers, how do they perform? I also don't see the ports (for bass reflex), are they sealed or is that the port between the black and red part on the front?

Excuse me for my poor English - I do what I can!

Thank you,
Joro

But of course. I didn't mean to rush you.

No one here will judge you foreign language skills, I can tell you that much. Every now and then someone might ask for some clarification but that happens even with the most skillful.

Looking forward to read about your work. I will be honest and say I'm very skeptical by nature, but I try not to be dismissive.

Thank you for your opinion!
I have registrations in over 25 "DIY Audio Fotums" , after you seeing my projects, I believe I will have greatly contributed to reducing your skepticism!

I am impressed.

How do they sound?

Any chance that you have ever measured the frequency response?

Just curious, what country do you live in? Was it difficult sourcing the parts?

Very nice looking speakers! You put some love into them. I'm with a couple others that are expressing curiosity about measurements. Are they pretty flat? Where is the -3db on the low end?

Okay, port is on the bottom. Pretty cool. I don't know enough about crossovers to comment. They look well put together though.

My " OPPO -105D" can read ISO and all the formats that you think of.
The Marantz 65009 is a compromise, after about a month I will show you a DIY amp, but I need of your patience.

I will show you the measurements of each speaker, please for your patience, only a few hours have passed since my registration, this is a project for several years, understand that I can not show you everything for just one moment.
I'm sorry!

I suspect we're dealing with a little bit of a language barrier here. No need to apologize. Take your time. I was just commenting that I thought the Crossovers looked well built. I'll keep track for updates.

At the beginning of my post I apologized for my English.
I will try to explain, I understand very well what your opinion about my filter is, thank you!
I do not think there is a language barrier, I just want to see more opinions about my project.

You do very fine work! Looks extremely professional!

What is your "real job"? I mean, what work pays the bills?
