Scott O.'s - Home two-channel main system.

 I guess I will add one of mine. Then maybe another....
I have a ton of gear. So, I swap my gear regularly. As I am one that can never seem to leave well enough...alone. All of the (2 channel), "speaker systems" that I currently have are either "Classic" in type. Or pairs, which I have both designed, prototyped and then built by myself. From the ground up including most of the cabling. This to termination at amplification. I've only had "So-so-luck" with interconnect cabling. So most are stock items.
I do not make/build all of the transducers and electronics, crossovers and etc. from scratch though. But nearly everything that you "might", call, "Off the shelf" has been altered/changed. Sometimes radically. I am experienced and comfortable working with what most would call, "Exotic Materials". (Since 1985)!
  Amplification and source electronics. As well as many of the various other components in my rigs, "aside from the speakers themselves", are mostly "stock" items.
And the interior of my home is said to resemble the inside of, "Frankenstein's Castle". And "Yes", The, "Jacob's Ladder", (And other odd devices), as that in the corner are real. And they all do, in fact "work". But if something is making any racket? "Other than the speakers"?
"Please". stand well clear and keep yourself at a distance... Wild-Plasma, "At Arc" when seeking earth potential to find equilibrium. Can be quite nasty.
   Anyway....
I have not taken any "new" pics in a while. But none That I will post today, are more than three years old.

I know that it looks as though the cabinets are near the back wall. But the rear of the bass cabs are actually, (4'- 10") from that rear wall. Making the front of the baffle/transducer face (6'-5"), from that rear wall. The midrange and high- freq. transducers are in a "Dipole" configuration. And all baffles are at an exact 2-degree angle off of (90 degree's or plumb), which is in fact "adjustable". This from several *(1/2", #304-S.S. coarse threaded rods. Each rod was secured into an engineered epoxy. "After" first gun-drilling (1/2" holes), "Four into each front baffle = 16 rods across the set". These holes drilled strategically into White Oak (2" x 2"s placed just for this purpose. I as well, drilled thru the bottom of the Rock Maple slab bases "With a (1") countersink also to accommodate the double, S.S. adjusting nuts and washers system. And then further gun-drilled up into the baffles to a finished depth of three feet. There is also "A layer of (Constrained damping) beneath the (24" wide Planar baffles) and above the base surfaces as well. Under full compression it is still almost (1/2"-thick).
The majority of that rear wall (Over 80%). And also, both of that wall's corners "Floor to ceiling" are very well treated. That entire partition (15'-6" width X 7'-6" height at the finished ceiling) was engineered. The open room is approx. (37') in length. The finished height of the planar baffles is (88"). The front and side finish is of a "Birds Eye Maple" from Kentucky. And finally, finished with an epoxy layer and then a thick, catalyzed "Crosslinked" urethane top-coat. I dyed the wood, (No stain), after bleaching it.

I may only add a total of three pics? And those only sized at or beneath 1MB?
Hmm, Ok.
I had three more ready to go....
