Human Head records is a top notch shop if you find that tote bag.

I've been referencing this thread for the dimensions of @Mr. Bissness 614 utility cabinets, for @electrovice or anyone else who is looking.

@ICTWoody - these are clean! Glad to be giving your crossover handiwork a new home. Also appreciations to you and @Thermionics for the troubleshooting. Will get to swapping those caps hopefully in the next week or so.

And we're off. My friend is a very talented woodworker, and has access to a shop that builds high-end cabinetry, so I was fortunate to have spent some time over there today to get started on this project. I've always been a fan of the clean, industrial look of the early 614 cabinets, and...

That was the schematic I was planning on using given that my 414’s are 16 ohm, so that’s good news. Any modifications I should take into account for the 802’s being 8 ohm? Copy that, it seems like port location (front, bottom, back) is less critical than size?

Alright, we've arrived at a junction where I have a few questions before I start my build. If it's helpful, I've compiled the following for the build: 414-16a, 802-8g's, 32a's. Will be running these with a James Burgess 45/46 SET. Also have a 5w ACA Mini that I could throw in to see if a...

Altec 802’s - couldn’t find a mate for my single stateside, so we had to search elsewhere. Good news is that they're the final puzzle piece ahead of my first speaker build, a set of JELabs 2-ways.

A "you won the auction!" notification. Now to see if we survive shipping overseas 🤞

Well, a deal popped up on an unusual stereo rack (turns out a CB2 bar cabinet made of steel fits the bill), so I jumped on it - will get to a custom rack down the line when time/budget allow. I'm thinking a power conditioner in the drawer might be a solid idea for cable management? The...

Bump to start the week - preference would be for a single 802-8g!

Dropping you a PM - thanks!

I'm finalizing cabinet designs for a JELabs 2-way build, and have one piece of the puzzle left to sort out. I acquired a working single 802-8g + 32c - tested yesterday - and would love to either: Find a matching mate for it (as it will be visible atop the cabinet - photos attached) Find a...

Went to 2 of the Dead shows this summer. It's really an (almost) overwhelming sensory experience. My biggest takeaways: - The sound was incredible. Full, rich, but not loud, as in I didn't have to wear ear protection like I would at most other venues. - The visuals were beautiful, but there...

I was planning on creating a thread when it was all said and done. That said, if I get an update on my buddies timeline for the last 2 pieces, I'll get to writing!

Well, finally got some time in the lab yesterday. Updating my 2024 list accordingly for 2025: 1. Finish SP10 mkii plinth (just have to make a dust cover and a riser for the tonearm, but hey, at least the plinth is done and looking beautiful) 2. Finish SP10 mkii internals (officially officially...

Saw this at my local record store today, worth a trip back to see if it's still there?

Wish it was in the cards. Between drywall replacement, asbestos mitigation, and the actual rewiring, it'd cost a small fortune to deal with all of our units properly. Thems the breaks 🤷‍♂️

Cheers @gortnipper, I'll drop him a line!

Bumpity bump before these go out to a broader audience. Any 802's out there looking for a loving home?

Copy that. My electrician said the same thing actually. I just figure if I need to plug 4+ units in, I should get something with an added layer of protection rather than a basic surge protector given the age of our electric, but perhaps I'm overthinking it.
