Re: Keeping the cabinet square

I used the techniques Bill describes in the plans with no problems. I am an inexpert woodworker. One box came out perfectly square, the other was fractionally out (about 2-3mm). The only precaution I took was I waited until the box was finished before trimming the back to fit. As I lack woodworking ...

Re: For the ultimate DIYer

I have no idea. But, considering that all of the designs are just the amps and nothing else, I think you would have to find other schematics to add alongside these, such as gain attenuation, thermal protection, etc. :? Maybe for home use, but I'm not sure about pro use without such features. I'm st...

Re: Long Overdue - Jacks for Bass Guitar

When I first came to this site I tried to maintain a level of scepticism, lets face it, if you build something for yourself you want to believe its good, but the fact that professionals build herds of these cabs and use them week in week out when their sound is their reputation convinced me to have...

Re: Amp for new backline rig

I have two of these AI Clarus SL. Weighs 40 ounces. Bought them when they first came out. Thoroughly abused them with 2.6 and 2 ohm loads, and never shut down. This particular model is out of production it seems. I really like the preamp in it. When testing my 8 ohm woofers, I can get about 32 volt...

Re: Amp for new backline rig

No experience with those amps, but I have two small digital switching amps that I've used (when not bi-amping) successfully for about 5 years for electric bass. Thanks - I'd be interested to know more. I have the same flextone and shortboard that I use rarely any more, great amp and tone with signi...

Amp for new backline rig

I currently play guitar in a rock covers band and use a 2x12 Line 6 Flextone and FBV shortboard. Sounds are fine but the amp is a bit on the large side for some of the places we play and also suffers from poor horizontal dispersion which is a PITA on a cramped stage. I am also getting back into play...

Re: Jack's first date

So what are you going to build next? Not sure yet, but a couple of Wedgehorns are possible. I'm also considering changing my backline set-up. A 2x12" Flextone is actually too much for most of the smaller pubs we play so I may switch to a Pod floorboard + poweramp with either a WH10 or another ...

Jack's first date

Well, I completed a pair of J110s about 6 weeks ago. They were used in anger for the first time last night so I thought it’s time I posted a review. Firstly, for anyone wondering if they could make their own, a few comments on the build. Everything you need to know to build the speakers is in the pl...
