The original post explaining the reasons why I'm building Voigt Pipe speaker cabinets is here.
The project is to build a set of Voigt Pipe speakers, and to see for myself if they are as awesome as they are supposed to be - as in audiophile level amazing. Fortunately the project isn't terribly expensive - it's mostly time and labor. Unfortunately, I don't have much time to perform the labor :)
NOTE: Links to updates
UPDATE 1: Panels are cut - Screw ups and hole cutters.
UPDATE 2: More screw ups, but the cabinets are assembled.
So what is a Voigt pipe? It's a unique speaker cabinet design that is intended to reduce/eliminate reflected sound waves from inside the cabinet. To better understand what's going on inside a speaker cabinet, let's discuss speaker cabinet design a little bit.
