From one point I would like it to be better, not because it need to be but because it is I interesting to try in a way. From another perspective there is no truly practical need for MiniMe to be better then “juts not too annoying”. This weekend I made some experiments with paints. I hate any non-black drivers and I decided to paint the white section of the MiniMe’s woofers. I found a right acrylic paint and while I was painting cone I was asking myself: what the hell I was doing? It was not my intention to convert it into full-blown DIY project. My abhorrence of DIY community derives mostly from the fact the 99% of them do it just because they do whoever is double and they very seldom pursue any meaningful Sonic goals. Those DIY idiots can argue for years about quality of caps in cathodes, about the elevenths distortions in app-amp, or about advantages of silver voice coils over cupper one. However, they never care to understand Sound not to mention to USE Sound. Well, bitching about all of it I do admit that in the MiniMe project I do not need any objectionable Sound and what I need might be literally obtained from a $30 commercial monitor, perhaps even an active professional monitor. So, what I am doing with the MiniMe and where I am taking this project?
