Fostex 206En Cabinet Drivers In Valve
The Fostex FE206En can be used as a replacement driver. Bass reflex box (design by Weems) in an article using Radio Shack drivers in Valve Magazine, Vol 6, No 4, 1999 at Bottlehead.com. Fostex has many plans for vented box speakers on their website for Fostex full range drivers. Many Fostex drivers are suitable for closed or vented boxes, including the FX200 and the F200A.
The Baltic Birch is 11/16" thick and doubled up for the front baffle per the Fostex cabinet plans.The driver hole has been cut to 182mm (7.16") to accept most Fostex 8" full range speakers. The side walls have been grooved to make positioning and assembly easier. I posted these simulation results on my site, with.(Loudspeaker not included) ( Here is a link to the kit with loudspeakers)The wood pieces for the BK20 are all pre-cut and sold flat.
The Fostex T90A would be a good choice, it works very well in the BK-16 kit.The rear panel is pre-cut for a perfect flush mount of the TD-CUP dual binding post input cup. You can always carve out some of the back wall or fabricate a spacer should your driver not quite fit.We recommend the Fostex FE206En full range speaker (shown in photo), but the cabinet will also work for the FE208E Sigma.Please look at the BK-16 and BK-12m kits as an example of what this will look like finished.You may also decide to add a super tweeter to your speaker. It measures 127mm (5") from front baffle to back wall on the bottom of the hole, and 150mm (5.93") from front baffle to back wall on the top of the hole. The wall opposite the driver through hole is angled. The maximum depth of driver this cabinet will accept depends on the magnet structure. Feel free to try other 8" full range drivers in this cabinet.
Fostex 206En Cabinet Manual That Shows
I stuffed the back, top and sides, splitting the amount in half.If Madosund can give me some hints for placement, i am listening quite close 2,5 meters, and tow inn, it would be great.When i listen to vocal jazz (Diana Krall) i can hear everything thats going on in the background (Live In Paris) i hear things in her mount when she sings, i hear when she presses the pedals on the piano etc, the details are great.I was not expecting much as for the low tones and the bass, but i think it sounds good with enough bass for the music i like.jazz, blues, soul, pop and some classical.I live in Norway, so my shipping cost and taxes was quite high, but i do not regret.I am recomending these to anyone who wanna try backloaded horns, i have never heard or tried it, but i am very happy that i took the chance. Wood glue and clamps are recommended for assembly.After assembly, you may wish to round off the corners, stain, clear coat, or paint the cabinet.After some emailing with Madisound and Adam i desided on the BK20`s without the tweeters (T90A).The building was quite easy (i am a first timer) but Madisound could have made a manual that shows gluing, stuffing and each step with better pictures (real photos) that would have made it even better.But.the sound is amazing so far, i have no stuffing behind the driver yet (Fostex 206En) i tried with the recomended first, but the bass was "boomy or hollow) but i will experiment with this. Don't forget to order these with your cabinets from the drop down menu unless you have other plans for that opening.Assembly instructions are included.
