I've got a "Wizard Design" cooking right now.....  



Congratulations on the opening of Noble Audio!
 
If you could share, just for fun, what exactly is this?
I have no idea but i'm gonna guess it's a handheld UV light?

Newbie to the forum.  What a great thread.  TONS of great info and lots of informed (through knowledge or hard knocks) opinions.  I'm considering making a pair based on the CI and TWFK drivers.  Has anyone considered making a wiki?  Sort of a way to boil down what floats to the top.  108 pages is A LOT of posts to read to get to "the good stuff".  Anyway glad to be here and looking forward to taking the "journey".

Anyone else used minicircuits.com? is this a practical and usable source for crossovers?

Has anyone here made any DIY universals? I know it probably seems counterintuitive. If you're going to make your own IEMs you may as well make them custom to fit your soundholes right? Regardless, I think some well designed/crafted universals would be really super.

That's my plan, to make a universal acrylic shell such as the heir 5.0 or 1plus2 to fit 6+ drivers. Only advantage I see to a custom is possible very slight increase in sq, but I don't know if that is even true given all of the other factors involved with tuning. I've also never had a custom isolate as well as say a shure universal, and universals win on the convenience factor as well. Plus I can share my creation with the world :)

  hi, is it possible to fit the tf 10 drivers into a shure 535 shell? http://www.lunashops.com/goods.php?id=3846 i heard someone had done it before


shouldn't be a problem. Both SE535 and TF10 are based on the same drivers.
But the outcome of the sound will be much much different between SE shell and UE shell due to the nozzle, size and length.
