Urgh, sorry for the lack of updates. We have nearly all the electronics but the boards haven't yet been done as the guy doing them is very busy doing important stuff for work (engineering stuff for an Antarctic research thing which can only be carried out in a certain time frame). Hopefully I'll have something to show you all before summer's over!

Hopefully I can provide some more interesting posts soon. At the moment we're twiddling our thumbs, although we've been looking at ways of making the woofer basket other than the rubber coupler and clip (which looks bad in our opinion). We're going to look at some different rigid plant pots - inspired by this thread: http://orion.quicksytes.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1608

Just experimenting with ideas for the base, which contains all the electronics/amp/crossover etc.

Very pleased with the quality of the turned basket units. Just have to make sure the rest of the speaker is as good!
