This is my first entry of my home theater Upgrade Vlog. This entry shows two of five satellite speakers that will be a part of a 5.1 subwoofer satellite speaker system currently being built.

This is a project …
This is a project that slowly evolved over a very long time, So I haven’t really kept tabs on exactly how much I spent in total thus far. But hi-end audio and video can easily cost tens of thousands of dollars.

understandable. hope you get it the way you want it to sound. good luck.

They only good full rang drivers drivers with the performance characteristics I desire would have cost me a small fortune. So I had to drop them from my shopping list and settle for two ways.

those drivers are shat. u need full range wizzer cone drivers with subwoofers.

Good comments,
I will rehash some lessons I learned long ago and it got me interested.
The secret to a good Transmission Line is in matching it to the speceific woofer.This is done by obtaining the measurement of the woofers resonant frequency(the tone that the woofer naturally “rings”much as a bell does)
This measurement is supplied by the manufacturer as the Fs parameter.
It is then a simple matter of determining the correct length for the transmission line.
There is a formula to use.

I would love …
I would love nothing more than to build a set of transmission line enclosures. I’ve heard a pair before and the bass had a very nice open natural sound that was indeed far better than any conventional design. Unfortunately I don’t have the room for them nor do I feel secure with the lack of predictability in the mathematics used to calculate the tranny line enclosure specs. Maybe next time I will build a set. But for now I am very satisfied with the performance of my current project.

Vifa are good …
Vifa are good components to use, but I question why people who do obviously have some clue as to what you are doing, are still building ported/vented boxes?
Perhaps its your first building.
None the less, I challange you , 5 years from now, to craft a Transmission line Design speaker enclosure using Vifa components,crafted out of ABS Plastic(a fantastic material for enclosures)
I think you will realize the potential, after listening to some Transmission lines at your local audio shop,

The white …
The white components are resistors. The inductor is the coil of wire.

I do have the first two speakers up and running. Indeed vifa is awesome stuff. My highs are crisp and very detailed, mids are very clean and natural, and bass is nice and taught. Overall the sound stage is very large and airy while maintaining detailed fidelity.
