   Dynaudio drivers are excellent quality. Myself, I prefer Focal and Eaton, 
although these can be very expensive. If you plan on pursuing speaker 
building 
and design as a serious hobby or job I would strongly suggest the purchase 
f:
               The Loudspeaker Design Cookbook, by Vance Dickason. It should 
be in its' 4th or 5th edition by now and runs about $30. I have a collection 
of about 20 books on speaker design and building sitting on the shelf. 
Whenever a question arises, I go immediately to it.
                             also
   I would subscribe to Speaker Builders Magazine. I cannot say enough good 
about it. They print the good with the bad. If a person makes a mistake and 
screws up their project...they follow it and print it...telling where the 
mistake is. No matter what your level of expertise there is something in ever 
issue for you. It runs about $25 per year and is well worth it
