I am building the XF 210 and need to add 3/4" to the depth to line up with the depth of the matching head unit my son and I built, which will sit on top. I assume the added depth will have no negative sonic consequences but hope to get some confirmation. We are installing a pair of Eminence Ragin Canjuns.
Thanks,
Ron

Re: XF 210 Depth
If it's going to be open-back....I see no problem. If it's closed-back.....I still don't think it's an issue. I wouldn't worry about it. Considering that every speaker that you could put in there is going to react differently, I don't think that small amount will matter at all.ClementsRo wrote: ↑Wed Dec 27, 2023 2:28 pm I am building the XF 210 and need to add 3/4" to the depth to line up with the depth of the matching head unit my son and I built, which will sit on top.

Re: XF 210 Depth
This suggestion does not connect firmly to the issue of cabinet depth but if you are building this open-back, let me suggest that you make more than one top back board in different heights. I have my speaker jack set into the back of the top board which makes it a little less easy of a swap but if you're going through all the cutting and covering process anyway there's no better time to give yourself this simple voicing option.

Re: XF 210 Depth
The design was made large enough to fit the drivers inside. You can go larger without affecting anything.
