I have two sets of Def Tech 4" mids and I was wondering if there is a site I could by a kit with pre-built enclosure. I was thinking of adding them as rear or presence speakers. I don't have wood working tools and I don't consider myself adept at woodworking. I'm not sure if it even makes sense. It seems like most people that DIY are building more substantial speakers and subs. Is it worth the time/cost to put these little guys together?

Thanks Guys!

You can't slap those drivers into any kit and call it a day. A crossover specific to the driver needs to be designed and built. You'll also need to pair them with a tweeter suited to the mids' high frequency roll off.

The next hurdle will be funding a cabinet with a cut out perfectly matched to the driver's dimensions.

That said, Parts Express is a good place to look for prefab cabinets, both finished and flat packs. They also have all the tweeters and crossover components you'll needed.

I kind of figured that was coming. I don't think its worth it. I am going to check out the site though and see what they have.

Thanks again!
