Thanks for the wiring scheme and the info.....I'll begin checking things out. No wonder Martin let me use it! :? Ive checked over the last threads about this very amp. It seems all original to me - complete with lack of case. Im not really competent at changing bits should they need it....Ill cross ...

Hahaha funny as hell without trying to be!!!! 'Martins last problem' probably didnt relate to the Rogers Cadet or the not very bright lamp sat on top of my not very attractive speaker monstrosities as the wife calls it! Ive not seen Martin for AGES! I was a bobby on his local beat so often popped ro...

Martin (from South Wiham) kindly lent me his old but then working Rogers Cadet to break in my IPL's, he says it will pull me away from Naim Audio!!! trouble is I have never had it working. It glows nicely but I'm sure it should do more - seriously it powers up OK but no sound! anyone reccomend any o...

Well now you put it like that!!! I dare not tell people I'm a teacher!

Thats bloomin marvelous! Yes I have the crossovers and glad to hear they need no modification (the wife was dreading the soldering on the dining table again!) Now I know what a throat is!!!!! I could have missed something proper obvious here but the internal baffle ie the tapering line.......at the ...

PS, I'm not going to even ask about the crossovers yet!!

Im grateful for all the help already, didnt think it would be this quick!

Magic, looks like I could manage that myself and save a few quid! Looks like a brill little project for the summer (end of). You're a clever bunch I must say! Doubtless I'll have a few q's along the way. 1st one - for a bloke who doesnt understand trechnical terms like 'throat', where exactly do I m...

Aahhh yes I have the kevlar ones and the tweeters have the cut outs (so they can be placed closer together).

Thanks for the advice so far, theres no rush of course with 1001 other things to pay for and DO first!! heres a link to the driver specs from IPL - http://www.iplacoustics.co.uk/ipl_drive_units_.htm The tweeters are the Seas H881 textile dome tweters also on the same site. There is some basic specs ...

Well after a year of looking and 'not remembering' the KLS3 jogged my memory and I remembered I was after the KLS5 design. (very small) I found them and the design straight away. So actually they are no where as near the size of my S3TLM's let alone the 5 series. I actually have 2 sets of drivers (a...

I would love a copy.......so would the cabinet maker down the road. Im now officially addicted to the TL and would like a small pair for the small room! I bought the 25mm oak over a year ago. Theres a pair of cabs now on ebay. If needed he could 'reverse engineer'them so to speak. But a design would...

Hi all, not been on here for AGES - a testament to how much I have been enjoying my IPL S3 tlms' HOWEVER I built 2 (pairs not speakers) the first being a practice set. I now have a spare set of drivers and innards which I was going to house in a smaller TL design. Thanks Martin (perky) for the desig...

Im not sure if this is the right topic but help is needed. I have finished running in my IPL TL's, well the time has come to remove the drivers and veneer them - which I did last week. Trouble is I have damaged one of the tweeters, there is a very very very thin wire that connects from the wire term...

Calling all DIYers, Have a look at this funny tool which I bought to cut holes in my baffles, I bought one (well 2 actually) a littleun and a biggun. Look on ebay for circle/hole cutters. The are only 3-5 squid and cut perfect holes down the the milimetre. They are great for the home speaker builder...

That was bloody funny!!! I dont think I'll bring a plate to Owston!
