This cab plan was added due to continual requests - here it is:

The plan has nothing to do with the actual loudspeaker in the picture!!!

You can clearly see the driver through some some kind of grille cloth. So the cab is actually some kind of scoop design, i.e. a rearloaded horn. Not a frontloaded horn as in the posted construction plan.


best regards,

Bob

bob, can't you clearly see the four screws fixing the grill panel to the front? How on earth would you rear-load a speaker into that plan?

What do you guys think about bullet super tweeters on a reggae rig?

also I'm looking to rebuild my stack, currently I am playing 6 18's (Bass) + 4 15s (Low Mids) + 4 12s (High Mid) 2 sets of 1 Horn + 6 Tweeters.
1 American Audio 5000 Watt AMP (Bass)
1 American Audio 5000 Watt AMP (Low Mid)
1 American Audio 3000 Watt AMP (High Mid)
2 Set of (1 Horn + 6 tweeters )
The American Audio AMPS I have for seven years and never had a problem with. Everyone that I know has QSC, Crown, or some other well know name in the AMPS rack. They ask if I'm crazy for using AAA, but when that system is turned on they left with a look of amazement. They can believe that I get that quality sound from those amps.
