    Is Liquid Nails crap?

    I love Liquid Nails.... but you gotta get the right kind I guess. I use the Heavy Duty Construction kind that comes in caulk-gun tubes I like it cause it stays put, and fills in the imperfections in the wood... it also doesnt shrink when it dries. I think it's a LOT less messy than wood glue...

    custom componnet system how does this sound?

    When you use "active" crossovers, they split the signal before the amp. So then you need an amp channel for each speaker (so for 2 tweeters and 2 mids you would need 4 amp channels) A passive crossover goes after the amp. then you only need 2 channels of amp (right and left) and the...

    What's impedance matching?

    I agree with squeak, also theres one other thing to keep in mind... At least in a homemade passive crossover of 2nd order or higher (12db/octave +) if you unplug one of the speakers, at some frequencies the amp will see a short circuit of close to zero ohms that could cook the amp. Premade...

    Maybe start another thread talking about the speakers again and leave this one to the dogs (I know I'm one of the troublemakers, but I'm trying to redeem myself ) Did you get that deadener yet and get a chance to try em out? Cant wait to hear how they sound. Since you said you're pairing em...
