Thinking about controlled directivity smaller 2-3 way build after this.

Thanks guys! For now I'm prototyping the main board, I have several ideas, didn't fully commit to one yet. I've done the subwoofer part of the box, should measure 25x55x67 in cm, something that should be more than nice for a full range full size dipole.

What's not so nice is that in order to get more power than lx521 in low bass from such small enclosure you need to get 8 sb acoustics subwoofers. They are vented beautifuly, powerful enough, big xmax. Full vibration cancelling, no resonances. We'll see. @murphythecat not sure yet, I'll have 2, for low and high mid. Looking at making the whole thing with sbacoustics drivers, I really like them.

@zerodeefex I'm from Europe so no craigslist for me unfortunatelly. Purrin uses these right? I'll look into it, thanks. :) If you two like them that means they are probably very good. Not sure if it'd work out in my particular case, but I'll research it. Thanks :)

Lifting is a lot of fun :) Good stuff mate!

Great progress...I was into lifting till last year. Will return once this Covid thing is over. Although I couldn't make great progress in muscle mass but my HDL increased and LDL and triglyceride decreased + my eating habit improved

I've turned one room into a home gym. Got a squat rack, bench/incline, olympic bar and a crapload of weights. Resistive bands and dumbbells.

You're welcome...

I'd be worried it could make me poo myself....

Finally done with amps. Big box is 4 channels for the lower part of lx521, small packed box is 6 channels for the upper part.

Don’t you know cable lifters are snake oil? :P

When you pump iron, do you melt the iron first or is your blood basically magma?

P.S. On weights too. Starting light.

I've been lifting a lot and have been in shape for quite a while before dad died few years back, then stopped, got fat and terrible. lost 17 kg and started lifting again. doing full body workouts 4x a week, all major compounds and some accesory stuff too. good to see you guys lift too, iron is the way, all the way. currently on 18% bf, goal about 10-12

Found 10 for 3 bucks. EI14.

I'm generally pretty much a bamboo pole type of figure. It was once said of me that if I stood sideways and stuck my tongue out I'd be mistaken for a zip. I remember having a 28-inch waist and finding it really hard to buy clothes.

However, I'm quite pleased that the pair of trousers I wore in London, which would not do up under the belt last year, did so this year. (And that Marks & Spencer replaced that belt, for which I did not have a bill, because it had delaminated.)

Thanks guys :)

We got caught in a thunderstorm that came out of nowhere. Got soaked, lightning struck 50m from us, we were in the forest :/
Lost my flipflops in the stream, had to go barefoot through all that several km
Super interesting weekend

Wouldnt be that interestimg if you happen to be alone.

Good news, @Ardacer! Very happy news indeed.

Absolutely! Electrons know how much you paid for the cable and adjust performance adequatelly. That's why you must never buy second hand too!

On a serious note, no, I don't see why we would at all.

Just one more point, then I'll shut up about metals!

Always seems to me that people are saying that silver sounds /brighter./ Anthropomorphism much? Why aren't the bass-heads using lead cables? |lol|

It does slightly, but it might just be a perceptual thing because it also sounds slightly faster. You can also affect bass slightly by using thicker cables. It's all pretty small changes though, and I mainly get nice cables for the ergonomics of a soft cable that doesn't make noise when it rubs on clothing/chair.

I'll probably build some spherical enclosures and tinker with that first. Headphone parts? Uh... that's a lot more complex, like an order of magnitude. Not sure i'd have the time, will or knoweledge to do that

Btw, lost 7kg as of now. Think I'm doing good.

I printed baby groot first: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2014307 out of black PLA. It looks like charcoal-with-a-sheen with all of the texture.
