Maybe not snake oil but I need to get round to making a quilt (decorative sound absorbtion device) to hang on the wall behind my head!
I've also got some 8", 2",1" soft dome hifi/monitors I built which live at a mates house and some 5"+1" Beyma loaded bookshelf cabs in the office here. The desk, shelves and hi-fi cabs are all stained and danish oiled birch ply in a similar colour to the main cabs in the lounge! |

LG 50 inch Plasma.
Arcam THX 7.1 Receiver, I wanted compact single box with good sound. Arcam DVD Monitor Audio HD 270 main, 225 centre, 180 rears and 360 sub. As for fencing..... Our daughter climbed on top of a second fireguard which was just protecting tv ect got the little grill off the tweeter and thought the Gold coloured tweeter was an opportunity not to be missed. She poked 3 of them...lol. Still sounds lovely though so heyho.

I've been using this for the past 18 months or so, the somewhat bizarre/space-wasting design (it's 3U) was due to a change of mind halfway through the project! But it works fine nonetheless :) It's a pair of LM3886 monoblocks that power a pair of Monitor BX1 on my desk, with a DIY sub beneath powered from a bridged Samson 120a. And before anybody complains about the diameter of the output wires, they're plenty thick enough for the rated max output of the amps (which I never get close to anyway!).  I was originally going to use them with this pair of cabs I made with some cheap Tang Band drivers, but I screwed up the design (1st port resonance at 600Hz or something) so they don't sound too good...

Looking tidy, DIY audio have just released a new range of Italian HiFi chassis enclosures. Pricy but pretty. I'll need to make some more soon. I have a couple DIY channels using bridged P3As with chunky individual PSUs but it's time to move on and design my own amplifier to run the forthcoming DIY sub. Not sure what's going on with the post above, preliminary room DIY mock ups? |

Yeah I just saw the DIY Audio email, really got the itch to build something new now - but as always the problem is that I don't have a use for any more amps!

Ive got my eye on the New Offering from denon. The pma2020, looks an absolute beast. Not sure what kind of price I'd get though if I sold my pma1500 but the 2020 would be a nice upgrade.
Cant say I've ever fancied going down the home made route, I always think hifi should be left to the professional's with things like amps |

You might be surprised what level of quality can be achieved from a homemade amplifier that concentrates on the basics and uses high quality components. But if you have no idea at all about how to build and construct one you're best off starting small. There are some class A kits out there that a child could put together.
