Wouldn't the bass notes call for highest voltage? You could just watch for a couple beats to see how high it goes.

For some reason digital, 0-100 volt AC meters are exceedingly rare.

I'm sure you guys will have 5 legit good reasons as to why this isn't a good idea, but I've been thinking about building a small component box with a female Neutrik on one side and maybe a 4 foot male Neutrik cord coming out of the other side with a cheap AC voltage meter flush mounted in the enclos...

Strictly in the interest of science (lol) and not necessarily real world results, you could pursue laying up some sheets of 1/2" foam with a nice consistent layer of Titebond glue and bedsheets, also known as poor man's fiberglass. "A lot of people are" making camping trailers and oth...

Some potential solutions I've thought of but never tried are building a platform for the performers to stand on with tactile transducers (bass shakers) mounted underneath. Several years ago I built a dance platform / riser, about 8" tall, really just a 4' square frame made of 2x6s on their sid...

I agree! If it's worth your time it's worth a shot!

For me, money and food are very similar. I try to be mindful of my diet, but then the best sales person of bad ideas (the voice in my head) starts in. Four weeks later I'm eyeballs deep into a donut binge. Seth, check out Ozempic (Semaglutide). It worked for me while I was on it. You can find it on...

Make sure to bring plenty of bottles for notes, Seth!

Think you can re-cone the blown driver to still have a spare around?

What about building 2 or 4 of them completely and correctly, then building the remaining ones when your budget permits?

Thanks, Bill.

My very old plans for the TLAH only have one recommendation for 8" driver: the Eminence Alpha-8(A?). What are other commonly used / recommended 8" drivers?

Great job! I'm glad they sound as good as they look. Is that a corner behind the piano? A mirrored wall rather than an opening to an adjoining space? If so, you may want to try putting it fully in the corner, either flat to a wall as you have it, or diagonally facing into the corner.

Don't move the hole; move both sides, one at a time. Cut half of your desired width reduction on one side, then glue the new side back on. Repeat for the other side.

What about going digital via Cat5e / 6 / 7 cable? The image below is just an example, not a specific recommendation for your application.

What Seth said. As soon as I read "...my OTHER subs..." I had the exact same thought. Try it alone and see if the SPL increases, or at least sounds better to your human ear.
