OK, I'm finally getting around to making a home theater kit I've had sitting around forever - and I'm confused!
Every build I've seen done of these speakers (Audax DIY Home Theater - designed by Joe D'Appolito) has all the drivers recessed, but his plans only show the AP130Z0 driver (the center channel mid-bass driver) as being recessed, all the other drivers are shown as being mounted flush on the face of the front baffle without being recessed.
Who am I to argue with or change a design by Joe D'Appolito?
Or does it not matter?
If I should recess them all as every build of the speakers I've ever seen has done, how do I determine how deep to recess them?
I'll really appreciate any comments at all on this, these are the first speakers I've ever built and I'm paranoid about messing them up!
Thanks!
(I'm attaching a sample picture and the plans to illustrate what I'm talking about)
