F.S. Lynn Olsons Ariel 5s Loudspeakers Vifa & Scan Speak
Hi All
It's time for me too build another set of speakers and usually I will trash cabinets and save drivers. However. These sound too good to trash. I built these 2 years ago. They are the side firing configuration and in a larger room than I have would produce some really awesome bass to 45hz . My side walls are too close, so room acoustics limit base production to 60Hz. After that, the sound and imaging is amazing. For those who are new to Lynss design, these are a hybrid Transmission line speaker. The boxes are very complex to build due to the lybrith. Crossovers are 1st order for the woofers and 2nd order for the tweeter. These sounded best in my room. Check out Lynns site. http://www.nutshellhifi.com/Ariel.htm for the whole story They are complete with drivers and croosovers. They were lacquered a nice red. Pictures are available to be e-mailed. Vifa 5.5" P13WH-00-08Scan-Speak D2905 Scan-Speak D2905/9500 First $500.00 gets them plus shipping. I will not ship these any where but the USA. I do not want them damaged. A reminder, I have been a cabinetmaker/furniture maker for 30 plus years. These are built to plans and the quality is the best. No short cuts were taken. Thank you Mike Mueller |

Al Hi Al since these are vented from the sides, what would swapping left for right do? This would effect imaging. How would this effect bass response. Thnk you Mike Mueller |

Perhaps you could try? cheers, Ian Hi The speakers are designed as left and right units. If you check out the web site you will see they are mirrored. Switching may effect imaging , but how it will effect bass I do not understand. They are a dual tuned port firing from both sides of the box. I could see how a single side port would be effected by this reversal, but not a dual port system. Mike Mueller |
