Please note that *I* would not in a million years suggest using radio shack drivers for loudspeakers. Also, the given frequency response of Mr. Hartzog's new speakers is highly suspect. Minor quibblings aside, I tip my hat to Mr. Hartzog for diving into the vast unknowns of speaker building and producing something that he seems very happy with! Here's the article: Mr. Levin, My name is Greg Hartzog, and I am the one that put the message on net.audio several months ago asking everyone to tell me everything they knew about designing and building audio speakers. Well, after much research, design, and smashed fingers, I have done it. I have built my own speakers. tTThey are made with Radio Shack components, including crossover, and 3/4 inch particle board. They sound quite good, and have a range of 20 Hz to 22,000 Hz. Please feel free to post this to the net, and if anyone would like specifics on the speakers, please just send me a note, and I will happily respond. Thank you for your time.
