Looks good. A little more info about the xover and eq please. How do they compare to other speakers you have had?
Thanks,
John

hey john!
just using a minidsp. crossing them at 200hz. i have the augies currently running 20-400hz.
oh i have a dayton audio usb mic and REW for the measurements and EQ'ing.
I like my maggie 1.6's better because they are softer in the mid range.
but no the carvers sound pretty fantastic, once you get all dialed in. it took me 3 days off and on to get them tweaked the way i like. but well worth it.
i think i'll paint them! lol

All I can say is "Send Lawyers, Guns and Money".
Oh yeah, paint them red.

That looks like a fun project. What prompted you to rdissasemble the Carver Amazing Loud Speakers? Just needed something to play with or were you looking to try to fix somethin you found them lacking?
