The receiver is 7.2 so when I build up funds again I could get some nice floor -standing speakers for my left and right front channels.
Anyone ever purchased from a4l or tested this pack?

My Logitech Z623 connected to an Echo Dot 1st Gen has seen its days and needs replacing
Already have a Sonos Move so would like to add to the ecosystem.
Anyone know there are local resellers? Not feeling to go through the hassle of shipping and duty nightmare.

Issue and forgive me if this is not the right forum but I have a pair of EV Force i25 speakers, placed in storage for quite some time due to a blown diaphragm on one of the tweeters and the replacement was done, simple plug and play. Worked fine for a couple days and then randomly blew once again.
Problem is isolated to that particular speaker as the other side in the pair works fine to this day. Reached out to the company that sold the replacement diaphragm and they suggested that it may be a problem with a crossover or a bad amp output out of the QSC 2450.
Out of my depth here so any assistance would be appreciated.
What drivers u end up using and active or passive xo?nareshseep wrote:Has anyone ventured into full open baffle systems for home ie. both for mids and bass ?
For the covid I built a copy of the manzanita's which is a proven documented design on diyaudio.
Where this system shines is in the reproduction of songs with acoustical content.
The sweet spot is wide and the soundstage has depth in my listening area.
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the moon is lovely to listen to on this setup.
Rock music is bit a challenge for the manzanita, however I believe that open baffle designs such as
the LX521.4 designed by Siegfried Linkwitz get around this by using a dedicated 8" midbass driver.

Dayton full range 8", and GRS 12" open baffle subs. 1.5" MDF Baffle for the bass with pine baffle for the 8" FR
The sound was fantastic. Very detailed sound stage, natural sounding vocals and intstruments. The bass was articulate and true. Listeners to the system ranked them the best sound they ever heard. The realism was out of this world.
I used them in a bi-amp config. NAD 326BEE for the 8" and Behringer 1500 W for the 12" subs. The processing was done with a JL Audio TWK 88 and the source was a Yamaha WXC-50. I have a vast Hi Res collection.
I must say that I thouroughly enjoyed the sound. The music really pulled you into a completely different understanding. I scrapped the system to reconfigure the speakers. The cause being the complication of the final solution. Too much equipment. The subs required alot of power and alot of tuning to get it to sound just right.
Thinking about a configuration comprising a dipole sub, open baffle mid/midbass and air motion transformer tweeter. Still putting some thoughts together though.

I had a monoblock running an 8 inch sub, I tested it and it did around 63 watts RMS which is pretty good for the footprint. My PSU was the original 19.5 volt that came with the amp.X_Factor wrote:These lil bt amps from Amazon are awesome
Some decent power but you need the 24v power supply
I was thinking about getting 3 of the 2 channels and doing an active 3 way but still undecidedX_Factor wrote:yeah, they are pretty good, once you match the 4ohm or some high sensitivity 8ohm speakers they are pretty decent
shitty thing there isnt much of a choice in terms of speaker choice--only those pro audio loudspeakers and the other end of the scale--studio z, sound barrier etc
looking at the column type line array set up---8-3 inch, a planar tweeter and a 12 per side
but i will wait till i am going fl or so next year to get the stuff
to ship in some decent dayton, peerless, hivi etc is too costly for the value
getting a pair of silver flute 8s for cheap, but by the time its landed, it will cost around 1000TT

You have a mount?
It's not difficult to do yourself.
if it's a concrete wall and you have a hammer drill it's easy peasy.
I also would like to do the same with a curve 65 inch I don't want to handle the tv as not to pinch the screen , are there special mounts for tvs like these?Duane 3NE 2NR wrote:lionofzion wrote:Looking for someone to install a 65” tv to wall in San Fernando.
