Build Your Own?

I built the NaOs by John Kreskovsky. So I can't take any credit for John's wonderful design. I also can't take credit for the cabinet work, as I had those built, too. However, I did all the electronics work, driver installation, active crossover, testing, etc.

Alot of fun, and I've got a pair of speakers that would probably sell for way, way more than what I put into them.

Quite a few great DIY designs out there, but realize some like to "roll their own".

If my goal was to create a great sounding speaker at first try, I would pick a proven design. There are many great designs out there for free or low cost. Madisound is an excellent resource, as is Parts Express. You might want to read their forums. If you want to make a hobby of building speakers, I'd suggest you pickup a copy of Vance Dickason’s “The Loudspeaker Design Cookbook”, and go from there.
