[QUOTE="DeonC, post: 496461, member: 1210"] I want to be the dissonant voice here. I liked the look of those DIY jobbies. I thought they looked good. Not as good as the original, but not bad at all. I wouldn't kick them out of my listening room, if you know what I mean. If you want to do something similar, KJ, I would do the bass box as a standard square box. It would be very difficult to do something similar to the Nautilus unless you have access to serious molding facilities. Then you do the mids and tops the same as the Nautilus. I.e. something similar to the 800-series, except that the bass would be 1/2-wave TL loaded. Only problem is that if you use a large bass driver, the TL will be long, so the box will be deep. And those speaker are not known to be very efficient, either. But, you pay your money, you pick your poison. :) [/QUOTE]
