Re: XF412 Internal Damping material

The point of cabinet lining in my way of thinking is that it has an effect of making the cabinet acoustically equivalent to something larger and for that to work, air needs to be able to get in and out of the material and that characteristic is more important that how dense or heavy the material is....

Solid/Joined wood for cabs?

I have a line on some reclaimed wood that for the sake of discussion I can get cut down to 3/4" x 8" x 24" and I might want to cut those down further to 3/4" x 2" x 24" and join them to make whatever depth I want. I've made an XF210 out of 3/4" plywood and am very ...

Re: XF 210 Depth

This suggestion does not connect firmly to the issue of cabinet depth but if you are building this open-back, let me suggest that you make more than one top back board in different heights. I have my speaker jack set into the back of the top board which makes it a little less easy of a swap but if y...

Re: Crossover and bi-amping

I don't know what the OmniTop 15 is like so I don't have enough info to quite address your question. Sounds like the "internal" (internal to the cab?) crossover *is* the passive one, so I don't understand what you're asking there. I also don't know if your dBx active crossover is three-way...

Re: Speaker Mounting Suggestions for XF212

I am currently working on completing my XF212 and have a question regarding the mounting of the speakers on the baffles. There is little room around the cutout to mount the spiked 1/4-20 T-Nuts I have. The speaker mounting holes to the edge are .25"-.375"on the Fender (Eminence) speakers....

Re: Using Solid Wood for XF210 or XF212

I have an abundance of 12" Poplar board that I joined 15 years ago that is 20" wide. Joints are solid and joined properly with any warping. Is there any reason, other than a potential weight difference, that I can't use this to build my cabinet? I would still use plywood for the speaker b...
