I am preparing to build a set of jack 10s and jack 210s, and I am very interested in your parts, I'm not in a rush at all
Let me know your price when you work it out
FYI, I'm in Arizona, so definitely domestic shipping, just a bit to far to justify a round trip

I'm extremely happy with how they came out. Time will tell how well the relatively light colour handles wear and tear, but I got enough duratex to give them another coat and do touchup as necessary. Dave, good to know there's more builders around these parts, I'll have to try and see them when your ...

I have more pictures of the painting/finishing, but they are on another memory card, that I have misplaced somewhere. They were primed and given a single coat of duratex. Both tinted purple. With the braces in the mouth painted white. V-plate and brace painted to match. I added the vertical brace to...

Hello all. Sorry for the long absence. Life and the day job have been busy. I have finally gotten started finishing my first pair. They are sanded, caulked, routered, primed and the first coat of duratex is on them. I have two events coming up next month, on consecutive weekends, that I have to run ...

I want to help you set this rig up and get it dialed in. Over several days, I've typed up really long responses for this thread, then chosen not to post them for whatever reason. I am definitely still lurking around the forum, and I am absolutely interested in getting this all set up right and dial...

Yeah, I still have a lot to learn.
My mixer doesn't have much eq in it. Berhinger rack mounted mixer, and fairly basic.
I want a stand alone eq, or a fancier mixer, but I've been waiting until I need it and am better at using it.
Thanks for the tips

I did set the limiter with the amp turned all the way up. But the amp controls were just easier to use than the mixers to make adjustments during the event. Or rather after getting my levels and gain-staiging set, I would use the mixer's to adjust the entire system volume, then adjust the sub-amp a ...

Sorry for the long delay. They still need to be painted and I need to redo the plug panels and fix one of their plug access ports. Compress_20230913_170159_9300.jpg But they have been tested, enthusiasticly approved of and run successfully. The Saturday after my last post, I woke up early to test th...

They are done!
At least the first pair. They still need to get painted, but they are built and wired. Now I need test them and get them dialed in.

Thank you Seth, they have come a long way since I started and I'm pretty pleased with the results so far, definitely the most complicated wood working project I've done to date. I know exactly what you mean about "loud" vs clean and actually loud, and I'm very excited to get to play with a...

Is this one glued in? Definitely make sure. Compress_20230712_125755_5443.jpg That one was still loose when the picture was taken, but it has been glued in. Thank you for the concern though. I'm approaching the end here, at least of the construction. Just a few pieces left! I may be able to test th...

Im going with Seth's suggestions, looking at the boxes, it seems like the "right" number for each section.
I've gotten panels 5 & 6 on one box now, and all the wood to finish them, so hopefully next week I'll get those panels on the other one and get 7 & 8 done on both.

Thank you for all the responses. One more question while on the subject, what are the pros and cons of more or less braces? My thoughts are, more braces gives you slightly more riged and sturdy cabs in exchange for a more weight. Possible slightly reduced performance from lost space, but possibly sl...

Yesterday I was cutting panels 5 & 6, a long with bracing, and I had a question. In the plans it says they should be spaced 6" to 9", does that mean I should use however many I need to hit at least 6 and most 9 inches between each other and the sidewalls? In other words, 4 sets of brac...

We can only hope. They are now $5 less than they were in January
