The enclosure will be the recommended one by Fostex for this drivers. The drivers that I will use for the speakers are: 8' Fostex Full Range Driver FE208EZ, and Fostex Super Horn Tweeter T900A

So, let me tell the first doubt that I have, about the knowledge that is needed in order to assemble this system: Tube amplification with Back Loaded Horns, on a vinyl playback dedicated system, I think will be a great experience listen to music in a way that will be very different from what I'm used to. My first high end system, (I think in compare with my previous system, it will be very high end anyway hehehehe) will be: On the recent days, I was researching a lot about different types of amplification and loudspeakers, and I made a decision: I'm glad I listened to the reviews on this site and pulled the trigger on these speakers.Hello to all, I'm new on the Forum, you can read my introduction at the The Starting Block / Introductions. I can't wait to hear them after they have some playing time as they only have about 20 hours on them now. Like my title suggests, I know there are better speakers out there and if these sound this good, I would love to hear how those sound. The amp may be a little to much at the high end but I don't really push it. The drums sound like drums, the guitars sound like guitars, the violin is amazing and everything just comes together so balanced that I just can't believe it! I've been doing builds with the Dayton Audio 4 inch coaxials (which sound nice too) but I cannot believe the clarity of these speakers. I'm listening to Chance's End - The Outsider and the sound coming out is pure heaven.

I have them connected to a Sabaj A3 mini system with a cheap 6.5 inch sub for the low end and all I can say is wow. Thank you Madisound for such a great experience!įirst off, for an uber cheap build I put these drivers in these cabinets and stuffed them to gills. Absolutely fall out of chair vocals and silky Mid-range.Ĭlear out your calendar because these speakers will make you listen for days! I have 10 pairs of speakers and these are my favorites. For the money these drivers cannot be beaten. 25cu ft enclosures and a two bass reflex ports I was rewarded with wonderful sound.įor lower listening levels and smaller speaker cabinets you can make a low power (or high power) amplifier sing. With great help and direction from the Madisound team I invested in a pair of fe103en speakers. There were steep drop-offs in efficiency outside of that range. I tried several commercially available speakers. I wanted to have a smaller size bass reflex, bookshelf enclosure. My latest adventure was building a low power vacuum tube amplifier kit. I am an avid enthusiast of stereo equipment.
