Sounds terrible. Very dissapointed to say the least.

How so? Have you taken any measurements to see if the design is on target?

Is the crossover wired up as required?

Nah, just playing with you guys!
;D ;D ;D

Sound great to be honest.
Didn't really wanna comment the sound before a build thread, but thought it worth poking at the other zrt builders.
Anyhoooow,
Slightly laidback sound. Tweeters are absolutely cristal clear. Really, the start of 'money' from Pink Floyds' DSOTM is something to be heard.
The midwoofers play really low, and I don't need or want a sub anymore!
Stu was right, one can't believe the bass response of these.
Further more, I quite satisfied and will leave the BS audiophile vocabulary out.
In short they sound GREAT!

Stefan, did you go for the plain ZRT XO or did you do something else?

Yes, zaph's XO design.
I don't have any equipment (yet) to design XO etc. So, I had to 'settle' (read: I probably wouldn't have been able to do better myself) for a proven design.
Only thing I contributed to the original design is the curved cabinet and the port tuning(WinISD).

How so? Have you taken any measurements to see if the design is on target?

Would still like some measurements though! Just to see how the response looks.

Very very very nice.. what finish is that veneer? and what wood finish? You need to do the build thread!!!

Now I'm under pressure.. I have a box planned.. (70%) I have a strange thing for the usual box shape (luckily).. I'll start my build & thread in the next week or 3...
