:) sooo, i'll try to cover everything; probably gonna take a few lines. tl;dr: Went well in the end, nothing broken, sound was brilliant :) Screenshot 2026-05-02 083954.png The place :) WhatsApp Image 2026-05-02 at 08.08.58.jpeg Support when setting it up :D WhatsApp Image 2026-05-02 at 08.08.58__.j...

Aand the little one is ready for her first trip :) Except the cases, all of this will be doubled :))
Really like it and really excited to run it fully :)

Oh and to the spread stacks, yes aware of that effects. Will test around what works best when all cabs are done. The end would give me many options to stack, i thought about doing both plated sets of 4 t30 next to each other, and placing the dr's on the outer edges of the t30-row for instance. Will ...

Yeah the doubling was just written without precise thoughts to it. Sure not really doubling, but it will exceed what the first four can do. And i think the first 4 will already be super loud :) I will report on this experience, today only the wiring on the cab left and mounting the drivers and wheel...

Aaand living in a colorful life again :) 1000046644.jpg Did a rough sum up, these 2 cabs now took around 15 hours; most elements precut saves a ton of time. Maybe 25 without precutting. Will test stack the 4 to see what happens and if everything fits within the next few days, thursday night they'll ...

Ready for the paint, including the v-plates :) Two is kind of the limit to have on the table, so i'll keep it in pairs.

But i fear i'll have to run the first half soon as a sort of halfway snack :)
Will test around as soon as i can.

1000046365.jpg Took a lunchbreak to get it a bit firther... The left has an error on it, the front slipped while glueing a bit so there is a gap in the back now; will ad a piece there and cut it flush. Rushing things inbetween not the ideal way, will take it slower but i think this weekend could pa...

Not further on the cabs, but the shoes arrived - life is good again :)

The rest of the cabs about to come, as soon as possible Even two wires pretty easy compared to my previous solution.

Regarding the blocks they should be either screwed or clamped while the adhesive sets. That forces the adhesive to expand into the pores of the wood for a better bond. Without pressure on the blocks the expanding adhesive can push the blocks away from the baffle and the bond won't be as good. It's ...

Alright, this feels like a weapon of mass production, super satisfying. cab c and d halfway done, in around 4 hours then time was up :D 1000045867.jpg Pre-fabricated flanges and the first two panels before putting them on the side. With the one-piece-flange(s) no problem at all. 1000045870.jpg 10000...

If you have already run those Sims and chosen your freq and slope based on it... I applaud you. Nothing to applaud, i just wanted some protection before letting music run through it, nothing simulated and no further thoughts. I will do this when really running everything out loud. Edit: Just took a...

I hope I'm wrong, but a few of them appear as though they may be too far out from the ledge. Driver screw holes are pretty close to the cutout diameter. I'd trial fit and screw down the driver before installing that panel, just to make sure the screws actually go into the retention blocks. Not a hu...

Was that trace taken with the highpass filter disabled? If not, what frequency and slope are you using for the T30's highpass? It was, just out of curiosity. (As i said, levels totally off. Ignore the db number, just the graph) iirc i set a bw 12db/oct at around 32 or 35 hz; will see if a lr will d...

third song you played, "Hypnogogia". Added it to my Psytrance playlist. Thanks! For your pleasure: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RjPjAl_V2yqRHgU773VnkuOTg4GL7y5V/view?usp=drivesdk :) For me this sits in the glitch-section, also somewhat diffuse borders there... Mr bill and electrocado ...

Set the vpl to 100v to be on the safe side... This was the right move. The difference in output between 100V and 107.5V is completely imperceivable at only 0.6dB. I didn't reach that anyway...and when i see what two cabs do, i probably don't want to reach the limits with 8, at least not when i am s...
