I need to ban myself from the internet…

Now I’m thinking of these:

Do you have Sims or actual measurements of the subs you are considering? Or is that next step?

The one I 3D modelled above is pretty flat 30-90Hz. Similarly that folded horn just above the THAM is also pretty flat over the same area just goes down a few dB lower before tapering off.

They’re only 30cm wide, so you could have two each side :+1:

I was thinking more lying them on their side and having the JMODS pointing up a bit :laughing:
But I do like your spirit, just like @SteadySteve more bass = better

Seriously it does look like a good design. I’m guessing with only a 10" and a fairly small size there’s a limit to the SPL and efficiency, but good powerful amps are not expensive nowadays.

Haha, I’m using less is more right now.

2 clicks down on both THs and MEH LFs than when you were here last.

It’s nice to have reserves though​:+1:

Wood cutting is progressing well

Ah that fresh cut birch ply smell.

Geoff at Servicesound has given the David Wright monos a clean bill of health and just requiring a new ECC82.

The decware he described as positively dangerous and terribly put together :laughing:
So he will be undoing the battery mod and reinstating the volume control etc. basically taking it back to how it should be.

Either way will be well timed by the time they are finished with the wood being ready for collection too.

Still not decided on bass solution. I might borrow a sub for a bit to see how it fits. But I don’t really want to compromise too much other than size. As I’m going to all this effort and expense so want something decent.

Don’t compromise on the bass. You will be surprised how much difference it makes.
