Hey! Today I could not wait any longer, I drove down to "Hifi Klubben" and bought a pair of Dali Concept 1 speakers. As I write this I am playing the speakers on a soft and comfortable volume, and they sound great! I've been waiting for so long to get myself a pair of bookshelf speakers! All this time I've been sitting here with a pair of uncomfortable Koss SB45 headphones. Those times are over, now I can enjoy Daft Punk, Trentemøller, Rush, Metallica, Tool and many others on a pair of comfortable speakers! The amplifier is a "Corda Audio CL200" witch is designed by a company from Kristiansand, Norway, used to go under the name "Kristiansands Lydfabrikk". I made this amplifier myself at school. If you are wondering about the two holes in the from of the amplifier, its for the bass and treble controls, but the card for it is broken, so I'm going to fix it and install it to the amplifier, but not yet, because now im using the computer to adjust bass and treble, so no stress. In the movie you can also see my Philips 32PFL5522D/12, a Xbox 360, my computer, CD's and DVD's, and more.

POINT-SOURCE SPEAKER CROSS-OVER CONCEPT

POINT-SOURCE SPEAKER CROSS-OVER CONCEPT Tube. Duration : 9.50 Mins.
Being small bookshelf speakers (that are complete), they have a resistor on the tizz capacitor on the full range driver (treble is tamed to match limited bass out-put in a small enclosure). Floor-standing speakers would probably have no tizz resistor on the full-range driver (owing to the increased bass out-put). The values of the components vary according to speaker/enclosure size and the individual drive units. My 4" Sharp full-range speakers are really chuffy, so the chuff resistor has to be unusually high value. The full-range drivers also have a boom choke in series with a resistor to make med-range mellow or shallow (warm or cool). You start off with an educated guess and tweak from there. You have to use "aligator clips" for your prototype cross-overs so you can easily change components as you listen (have fun). Never done it before? This will help: Resistors: Higher value evenly restricts the signal more and a lower value restricts the signal less. You have to have the impedance (resistance) of your speakers between 6 and 12 ohms (close to 8 ohms) if your amp is 8 ohms! Capacitors: Higher value = mure chuff or lower treble. Start with 5.6 mp for chuff. Lower value = more tizz or upper treble. Start with 3.3 mp for tizz. Easy! To hold back chuff, start with 15 ohm resistor on chuff capacitor (on tweeters for 2-ways). Higher value resistor means less chuff. On full range drivers omit the chuff capacitor and only have the chuff resistor (for that fluent med-range ...
