Wanderstreet - Scottsdale Home Audio System

This is the interior of the Wanstreet tower with the front baffle off and everything visible at once. The large open central chamber is the dual 12" subwoofer enclosure — that volume is calculated specifically for those two drivers and the 2500 watt amp that feeds them. Front left corner is the separate sealed box for the 8" woofer, completely isolated from the sub chamber. The right section separated by the angled dividing panel is the dual amplifier housing — 1000 watts for the mids and highs, 2500 watts for the subs, all running on 220 volts. Every seam is caulked airtight. Three completely independent acoustic environments inside one cabinet.

The sealed 8" woofer enclosure baffle being glued and clamped. The circular cutout on the right is sized specifically for the 8" driver — this is the isolated front panel of the small sealed box that lives inside the tower, completely separated from the large dual 12" subwoofer chamber beside it. That separation is intentional — the 8" woofer operates in its own controlled acoustic environment on the 1000 watt mid and high amp, with zero bleed from the 2500 watt sub section next to it. Two chambers, two pressures, zero interference.

Looking straight down into one of the 12" subwoofer driver cutouts. The recess is machined so the driver basket seats perfectly flush — no gaps, no shimming, no adjustment needed at install. The depth of this opening gives you a sense of how substantial the enclosure volume is below it. That volume plus the driver plus 2500 dedicated watts on a 220 volt circuit is what makes the Schneider great room feel the way it's going to feel.

The rear panel of the Wanstreet tower with both amplifier pockets clearly machined in and being clamped during assembly. The upper recessed pocket seats the 1000 watt amplifier that handles the ribbon tweeter, dome mid, and 8" woofer. The lower larger pocket seats the 2500 watt amplifier dedicated entirely to the dual 12" subwoofer chamber. Both flush-mounted, both sealed into the cabinet structure, both invisible from the front. When this panel closes up the outside looks clean — all 3500 watts of 220 volt amplification disappears inside.

Both Wanstreet towers assembled and standing side by side in the body filler and sanding stage. The pill-shaped upper sections with the ribbon tweeter slots, dome mid, and 8" woofer cutouts sit above the large square subwoofer base enclosures — you can see the 12" driver openings on both the front and side faces of the base sections. These are not small cabinets. Two separate amplified systems per tower, 3500 watts per side on 220 volt service, African mahogany floating baffles going on both fronts. The Schneider great room is going to be a different room when these are in it.

First look at the Wanstreet tower fully assembled. The pill-shaped upper section carries the ribbon tweeter slot at the very top, dome mid below it, and the 8" woofer cutout below that — all three part of the 1000 watt mid and high frequency system. The large square base section is the dual 12" subwoofer enclosure, with one 12" driver opening visible on the front face and the second on the side. Two completely separate amplified systems stacked into one cabinet. Body filler is on the seams — the African mahogany floating baffles are next.

This is the rear of the Wanstreet tower fully coated in Duratex. The rectangular cutouts are the dual amplifier mounting openings — the upper pocket seats the 1000 watt mid and high amp, the lower larger opening seats the 2500 watt subwoofer amp. You can see the internal chamber structure through the openings before the amp plates are seated and flush-mounted. The 12" subwoofer driver opening is visible on the lower left side of the base enclosure. Once both amps are installed this rear panel is clean — all 3500 watts of 220 volt amplification disappears flush into the cabinet.

The Wanstreet tower fully built with every driver installed. Ribbon tweeter at the top of the pill section, dome mid below it, 8" woofer below that — all three on the 1000 watt mid and high amp. One 12" subwoofer visible on the front face of the base enclosure, the second on the side — both fed by the dedicated 2500 watt amp on 220 volt service. Duratex finish throughout. The African mahogany floating baffle goes on the front next, covering the driver hardware on the mid and woofer sections and becoming the face the Schneiders see every day. What's underneath it is what they'll feel.

Closer angle on the Wanstreet towers in the installed position and the front baffle detail is clear from here. The pill-shaped upper section puts the ribbon tweeter slot at the very top and the dome mid directly below it at ear level — exactly where they need to be for the listening position. The 8" woofer is in the middle section and the dual 12" subwoofer base fills out the bottom. The entertainment console with the receiver sitting in the shelf keeps the system clean and contained. This room went from a TV on a console to a full 3500-watts-per-side custom audio system without losing a single inch of livability. That's the goal on every install.

Installation day for the Wanderstreet towers and this is the money shot. Both custom WubWub Audio towers are in position flanking the TV — the pill-shaped upper sections with the ribbon tweeter, dome mid, and 8" woofer are at eye level, and the dual 12" powered subwoofer base enclosures anchor each tower to the floor. The system is already playing. The warm terracotta walls and the room's existing character make these towers look like they were designed for this exact space — because in a sense, they were. 3500 watts per side, 220 volt service, all of it living inside the cabinets with nothing visible from the front except the drivers and the Duratex finish. The Wanstreet great room sounds completely different than it did before these walked in.
