DIY Home Speakers
#1
I have my kicker K65.2 compents they work fine and kicker sent me the specs to what size I should build them to get proper sound and the tunning. Instead of just bookshelves I want to make a mini tower speaker with say a 10" sub in it for when just music is playing I don't have to always use the power sub, I was told best thing is use 2 highpass/lowpass 80-120hz crossovers I think it was.. would I have it setup so it's 2 terminals on the back 1 for the components and 1 for the sub? or just wire them off 1 terminal with the 80-120hz lowpass wired inline to the sub? Or could someone tell me what would be needed to just build a proper crossver so it's more like a 3 way design then just the 2 way for the components and how I would keep the final load at either 8 ohms or 4ohms?
Thanks

That's the specs to the K65.2 components and another thing would would be a good 10" woofer to use not to expensive but would still give nice sq/output?

According to kicker, the specs they gave have me tunning them to 46.5hz what kinda low end could I expect? I know it won't be to boomin bass but would it give off enough to be noticeable? Other then Mdf what other wood could I use that would finish up nicely say with a stain or something?

If you're not gonna have too much bass you could use 1/2" particle board with a veneer on the outside. Last time I bought it it wasn't that expensive, and it finishes fairly nice so long as the veneer doesn't have too many knots in it.
