After two coats of oil & a lot of elbow grease, here's a phone cam pic. slowly getting there...

Wow very nice! What wood did you use here? Congrats!

[monreq]

Stripped the varnish & will apply a new finish soon...hopefully 

Ganda namn ng woodcraftmanship.  Pa PM namn saan at magkanu.  Thanks.

Hi sir jen. Wood used is engineered solid wood bought at home depot 

Thanks!

Hi sir. Tag team kami ng suking karpintero (he did cabinets & other wood works in our house). I bought all the materials. He did the wood cutting since i didnt have the right tools. We did the assembly together & im doing the finishing.

Costing: wood = 3.7k, carpenter labor = 2k, other materials = 2k & counting

considering the build quality, another bang for the buck speaker cabinet...

[JoeyGS]

Alright!

Lets hear this when the finishing is completed.  I have a t-amp with battery powered power supply. Lets it and see how it goes.

Congratulations on a nice and affordable build!

Thanks sir tony.like you im a big proponent of bang for the buck audio items.

Ok sir. Might be a while before we can set the session because pure tung oil takes forever to dry. 2 coatings in 7 days and im planning to do 7 coats hahaha

Alright!

[deist]

Thanks sir. The build is far from being perfect but it'll do for a first timer like me.

My speakers only need to look good at listening distances. We call that prop level detail

it would be interesting to have a side by side comparison between the nirvana and the mark audio....
my place is big enough for the two..... katuwaan lang....

Since we all love Full Range speaker. How about Audio Nirvana Standard 8 only, Mark Audio and Omega FR. No Audio Nirvana Neo. Its just for fun for a true hearted Full ranger.  At the end of the day lahat tayo masaya because of one reason. FR Rules......

magandang katuwaan ito pag natuloy master and camaraderie narin at the same time ng mga full rangers!

[deist]

Guys, would love to but I live in the south (Sta.Rosa, Laguna) so lugging it around wouldn't be an easy thing to do plus it's not yet done, i think a few more weeks to finish this as I am just sneaking it in my free time. Thanks!

Wow! Dumadami manufacturers of speakers using Mark Audio Drivers!  That only means quality at reasonable pricing!

Timber na Timber ang gawa. Right up your alley and taste.

The guys behind those beautiful speakers are Paul & Robert Burchell. Frequently sharing their work sa Mark Audio section over at DIYaudio. Below is my favorite from them, they call it "Hurricane" baffles. The story behind the name is; they got the wood from an old elm tree brought down by a hurricane in Virginia and were able to salvage a chunk. Sick grain patterns, just love it.



@timber - brader, yakang yaka mo ganitong worksmanship.

@JoeyGS - 100% agree. Dumadami talaga ang audio companies na gumagamit ng MA drivers, marami pa sa EU na hindi natin nakikita.

Brader timber! Yung stands O!

Similar dun sa ginagamit ko sa speakers ko yan. Open stands... Nakasubok na rin ako ng makapal at mabigat, mas gusto ko yung magaan. Seems mas maganda dynamics with lighter stands kasi, of course dapat walang added resonation.

Yup, very much what I do and like.

[m0b1u5]

mga sirs, meron ba physical store na pwede mabilhan ng MA sa SG or through kay Neo lang talaga? I will be attending a conference next week dun kaso wala masyado time to roam around.  I am looking at getting the Alpair 12P. Thanks.

[deist]

Pwede! haha
