Re: Jack 10s and Tuba 24s?

Between 21" and 24" not huge with four cabs. Remember you can use scraps you have lying about for the braces.

The wider the better, so do what you must. But remember that you only get one chance to do it right the first time.

Re: What's to chat about?

Theaters don't go after sub 20 Hz content, not even IMAX. The size and cost of the gear is excessive. For the most part they're content with 30 Hz.

Re: What's to chat about?

With respect to rotary subs, it was a thing many decades ago, when we didn't have the low frequency drivers we've had since the turn of the century. Now they're a curiosity, no more relevant than dial up internet access.

Re: 2 Jack 112s - 3012HO with melded array

The Lavoce WAN 123.00 is very close to the 3012HO and may be less expensive in some locales. The WAF 122.50 is considerably less expensive and also works quite well, it's just heavier.

Re: OTop8 dispersion angle and Bi-amping

No measurable difference either, so long as the bottom of the cab is less than 1/4 wavelength from the ground. At 100Hz that's 85 Cm.

3/8 radius plastic corners will work with a 1/4 radius chamfer. They're not ideal but they'll do.

Re: Greetings

For two channel music your LaScala should suffice without a sub, unless you're into techno or DUB or the like, especially as with sufficient EQ the LaScala is perfectly capable to 40Hz. It may take 10dB of EQ boost but thanks to the 105dB sensitivity of the LaScala that shouldn't be a problem for ei...

Re: Greetings

Once again, the T24 is a pro-sound sub, not HT. It's meant to go loud, not low. The driver size doesn't determine how low the speaker will go, that's defined by the horn. You seem determined to have a horn sub that's smaller than your mains. It doesn't work that way. The size of the horn required is...

All the TT variants have about the same response. My TT 2x4 is good to 30Hz.

Re: Greetings

T24 isn't a HT sub, it's pro-sound. As for stacking subs and mains that's almost always a bad idea, as subs and mains very seldom work best within the same footprint. The room acoustics that determine the best placement are very different for mains and subs.
