3D Controllers in Marvel's The Avengers
So I went to see The Avengers the other day and caught a scene where they are in the mothership, and are entering the control bridge. They show several 'operators' in their stations and as it pans across two stations in particular, you can get a glimpse of at least 1 of 3Dconnexion's offerings.

Subwoofer Box Design Chronicles
the culprit(s) this time: a pair of 15W0v3-4 from JL Audio |
I have touched lightly on the topic of Box Builds before. Being a lifelong musician/audiophile has its advantages and disadvantages. In my case it has been an ongoing and seemingly insatiable addiction to upgrading my sound systems in order to 'get more' out of my music. At times the boxes have been ridiculous, at times they were cut and assembled by TJ down by the trailer park, but at the end they have all been a learning experience in sound dynamics.
Here I bring you my latest creation, starting with a simple CAD file which incorporates a few geometry constraints all the way to a finished product, with all parameters met, and installed in the intended vehicle.
5-way Terminal Cup for Subwoofer Builds (by JL Audio)
I purchased it to use on one of my boxes but then removed it when designing a new box. Ultimately ended up taking apart the terminal assembly and measuring the parts in order to draw them more accurately.
