Welcome aboard, Ken!! Good talking to you over lunch about your test rig and your pluto project. And thanks for the excellent suggestion about how to solve my audio measurement problems about how to measure raw phase tracking of individual drivers with the crossovers installed. I am going to try this out on my next build. Bill S.
I just joined the board. Been in transition over the last couple of years (moved to the Carolinas and then back to Central Illinois). I finally retired from work (oh yeah!) so now I can finally start buildiing a little something of my own. It was nice to get back to Iowa DIY this past weekend. Saw some familiar and some new faces. Folks are continuing to build quality stuff. Imperessed............

I decided to not sit to close for most of the demos this time. I got another perspective by listening from the rear of the room. Also saved my ears a bit too. The meet was great BTW....
The Nephilas are still crated up from the move back to Illinois. Our new home has a much larger basement so they will be going into my new 2-ch. / testing room (will power them with my restored Marantz 2285B or Pioneer SA-9500II).
May catch up with you at Louisville in November. Have some questions for you.........
Good to hear, 'Brian'! I'll try and get them answered for you.
Robert has been called 'Brian' since an Iowa DIY long ago when Doug mistakenly called him Brian. He replied, "I'm not Brian, I'm Robert." He's been Robert 'Brian' Clark ever since, and has the Monty Python avatar over on PETT for just this reason.

Hi Robert,
I must have missed the Brian saga so you'll always be Robert to me.
It was good to see you again! Its been a long time. Since you're back in the Midwest, I hope we'll get to see you more often.

Good seeing you again too and talking with you. Glad you and Curt are still going strong and cranking out projects. Too bad Curt couldn't make Iowa. Cool dude. Anybody heard from Doug Peterson?
Greetings from St. Louis I am an old hard boiled audio nut (for 50 years) ,native of St. Louis. In 1977 I built the speakers in the attached pix. I am still pretty happy with them. Quad amped. I moved two years ago and am in the process of resetting them up. Right now using the JBL L19 s in the background but modded with D216s instead of whatever was there. They sound pretty awesome too. I have built lots of gear and used to work in repair. I still repair scientific gear for a living at a local University. Gene in St. Louis
Welcome Gene! This is a great forum, full of varied projects, varied tastes & opinions, but very little of the bickering and ego sometimes seen on other audio forums.
Hi, I'm Patrick and I live in Minneapolis. I've always been into audio and tinkering, but so far I've just built a set of C-Notes. Probably looking to build better speakers this year and to play around more with the minidsp I recently got. Hoping to make it to an event, too.

Is that you, Robert Clark?

Good to see you back around, Brian! I did not see you in the photos of Iowa, so I didn't know you were there.
Still enjoying the Nephila?

I’ve participated at PETT for while, now just looking for more.
Not sure if there any down that way - but BK, JP, and myself are willing to help get someone pointed in the right direction to make something happen!
