I have been frustrated by the stands and all the little goodies between the speaker and the floor. While thrilled with the sound, I have been noodling over changing to a floor-standing speaker if there were only something out there I liked. I was not looking, just a tickle in the back of my brain, until Axpona 2025.</p>\n<p>While working at the AXPONA 2025 tradeshow, I took some time to look around, and a little birdie told me to visit this one room with Geshelli Labs electronics and Neil Blanchard Designs speakers.</p>\n<p>The Neil Blanchard Designs 4t4 debuted at Axpona 2025, triggered me, shot me out of a cannon, and more.</p>\n<p>[<a href=\"https://www.nbdesigns.work/shop/p/tower-4t4-mass-loaded-transmission-line-speaker-build-manual\">www.nbdesigns.work/shop/p/to&hellip;</a>\n](4t4 Speaker)</p>\n<p>These little one-meter-tall floor-standing speakers exist in a realm I know little about: DIY speakers.</p>\n<p>What in the world is a DIY speaker? I am traveling down one lightly traveled path with few road signs.  With some help from several friends, I am building speakers.</p>\n<img src=\"https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/10532/2025/954ef5221e.jpg\" alt=\"Neil Blanchard Desings 4t4 speaker\">\n",
