    Aquarium Lid / Hood

    Hi I've just begun looking after an aquarium - by default - my daughter is too busy watching Cbeebies and going to her friends birthday parties! Initially I though it would be OK without a hood but now I'm not so sure! Ideally I'm looking for someone with the time and tools to make one for me...

    Just to clarify, it was always my intention to strike a partnership with a furniture maker who wanted to include speakers to their existing product line up. In return I was happy to help fund prototyping or engage in a skills exchange where I offered my design and they were happy to help with...

    Thaks to all who contacted me and posted on this thread and I appreciate taking your time out to help. My apologies for posting again, but I now have a firm design for a sub woofer and I'm looking for someone to help me machine the panels. I've been looking at CNC, but as it's a one off the...

    I have a guy called Gary Rance to thank for the spherical speakers. Made entirely from solid American Black Walnut, hand turned. They look, feel and sound gorgeous :)

    The irony is that most live concerts and gigs are amplified through speaker systems so the majority of the audience can hear it in larger venues :) I don't see many concerts where you split a live band or orchestra in two and fit them into two 3ft cubed boxes, either side of the stage :)

    I also think [my opinion again] there are a lot of myths about Hi Fi and often people get caught up buying more expensive equipment chasing a ghost. Many end up listening to the equipment and not the actual music which is, lets face it, what it's supposed to be about. Don't get me started on...

    So many responses :) Speaker design is half science and half black art. As I said "full range" drivers have both benefits and drawbacks. I employ mine in a quarter wave loaded TL enclosure so that your "virtually" increasing the cross section of the driver and as a consequence reinforcing the...

    All of my designs now employ a single range driver. What this means is that there is no need for a crossover, it's basically a "staight through" design. Any design choice in Hi Fi has it positives and it's drawbacks, single range drivers are no exception but I think the benefits of this design...

    Paul - definately ! I designed my last sub to be assembled from CNC panels out of walnut veneered ply. It was an expensive lesson as I had to make several cabinets to "fix" my design oversights. Anyone with expertise in this is a real asset.

    Many thanks for all the replies, and thanks for the update on posting links. WiZeR, thank you for the compliment. I'm particularly looking for a cabinet maker but it would be good to have contacts with a wood turner too. Many people admire my designs and show an interest in getting their own...
