DR200 Kent's build

[KentWhitten]

LaVoce WSF081.82 for the 8" and Eminence ASD1001B compression drivers. I think they'll be a good fit

Right now I have a t39 and t30 in my shop. Not what I was going to use, more like a 20" wide Tuba 24 with 10" drivers

Finally got everything on the inside pre-painted and the sides are on. You can see that I went with the option to use the cutouts from the top and bottom "boob" half round pieces for a lack of better term. I was honestly quite surprised as to how well they came out. I fully expected a large hump where everything meets up, but was pleasantly surprised.

The pair of them all wired up through the back side and durhams wood putty filler

Back was prepped with hand holds and speakon holes, installed, trimmed, glued and screwed on the back panel. One thing I regret was not taking the time to figure out how to recess those speakons quickly and easily. After I mucked it up, I found out how to do it . Oh well, there's always next time.

I didn't get many pictures from this point on. I was rushing to the end, but I did still manage to get some final shots. For the throat pieces, I was able to do everything right on my miter saw. Made quick work of things

Decided to spray the throat plate black instead of brushing things on. It's not the best method. So hard to sand those pieces after they are in place. Also, started getting my soldering equipment out, as the crossover is the next step.

Time for nacelles. I made easy work of these on the miter saw again. Set up a stop and cut on the angle. Again, short on the pictures to show exactly what I did. Made from scrap Utile quarter sawn Utile

I was able to use a 23 gauge pinner to nail them on while the PL glue set. I offset where I placed the pins so I wouldn't drill into them

[KentWhitten]

For my crossover, I put everything on one board just to make it simple for me. I know that might not be the best method having all those parts close together, but I've never had problems with my crossovers.

This was to screw the board down when I placed it inside the cabinet

A little bit dusty, ready for the final walk through, clean it up, fill in holes, etc. Most of it is on the tweeter module, and unfortunately this is where my pictures stopped. I didn't get the final shot unfortunately. Total bummer.

looking real nice!
Are you planning on any grills or rock n roll as is?
Your HF section looks really nice, i'm excited to see how your drivers sound all loaded up in there.
