HOW TO BUILD SPEAKER ENCLOSURES by Alexis Badmaieff and Don Davis. Copyright 1966, First Edition,9thprinting. 144 pages, paperback 5.25 x 8.5 inches. OUT OF PRINT.

This is one of themostvaluable, sought-after books ever written on the subject of vintage speaker driver and speaker enclosure theory, design and construction. This book is on every \"must have\" list for speaker designers and audiophiles. It isone of onlytwo American books ever written from a professional standpoint on the theory and design of vintage speakers from the \'Golden Age\' of Audio, the 1950\'s and early 60\'s.

This book is an earlier printing with the more desired heavier-weight paper.

Alexis Badmaieff was the holder of 27 patents in the fields of acoustics, electronics, optics and mechanics. A member of the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, a Fellow of the Audio Engineering Society, and the Acoustical Society of America, he received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the Warsaw Polytechnic Institute.

Don Davis was a member of the Audio Engineering Society, the Chicago Acoustical and Audio Group, the Acoustical Society of America, and the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers. Inside this book is every major concept involved in the design of the world\'s highest quality vintage speakers and speaker enclosures, resonant columns, acoustic labyrinths, infinite baffles, testing techniques and multiple arrays, while also including topics such as efficiency and equalization, crossover phase shifts, network configurations, absorbent materials, driver mounting, rigidity and more, all covered in this most excellent book.

There are 7 detailed ALTEC cabinet construction drawings WITH dimensions including: The Voice of the Theater; a \"straight horn using two woofers for an approximately 80 Hz cutoff; a \"no-compromise, corner bass-reflex enclosure designed for 15\" Duplex drivers\"; drawings for a KLIPSCH corner-type enclosure with a horn-loaded port, along with more conventional vented enclosure plans by ALTEC for 12 and 15\" drivers.

Plus, materials lists, construction steps and drawings for building the classic JENSEN Imperial Folded Horn Systems (2 different designs) and the BOZAK B310-A enclosure are included too.

Also included are superb cutaway drawings of the ALTEC 604 Series speaker, as well as the JENSEN G-610 Triaxial speaker and the KLIPSCHORN by KLIPSCH. A description of the theory and principle of the KARLSON enclosure is included as well as a reference to the WESTERN ELECTRIC 755 speaker.

This book is loaded with diagrams, nomograms, tables and formulas not found in ANY other speaker book ever written and all the information is from the 1950\'s and 60\'s era of speaker design and construction.

This book is necessary for those of you who wish to employ low-wattage, single ended amplifier designs teamed with a high efficiency speaker system. Now you’ll have help designing your cabinets using the high efficiency drivers for which this book was written.

Books are packed in boxes, not envelopes, for safe delivery.
