Speakers: AFC Mk I

Last year (2011)I decided I'd build a pair of speakers. Last time I'd built a pair of speakers, it was 1999 during the students protests and strike in Valparaiso. I got a pair of tweeters and a pair of woofers, two capacitors, an 8 Ohm potentiometer and made a box around them. Ah, yes, I drilled a hole in the front. Sadly/luckily, there are no pictures of those monsters, but they kept me company until around 2005 when I moved to Germany.

This time, I'd do it right. I decided to build a "Picolino 2" from the german "Hobby Hifi" magazine, to replace the E 90 Northridge from JBL, which I never liked to be very honest. I'd have to give it a try.
