Re: Joe's Omni 15 Tallboy

Started on my Tallboy this weekend. For anybody else near Denver Colorado, I found Baltic Birch at Consolidated hardwoods for a decent price. 1/2 inch 5x5 was $45 a sheet. Here's the basic cab shell: 20170312_124140.jpg Baffle cut was made with a jigsaw (very slowly): 20170312_155736.jpg Baffle ins...

Re: Another OT12 build

I finished my OTOP12's last weekend. I will be running the pair on top of two T39's at shows we provide FOH. I am completely blown away how they sound! Anticipation accumulated during the entire build "I sure hope these sound as good as everyone that's used them says they do". Trust me... ...

Re: Omni15 Tall Boy

Curious about how/if the O15TB interacted with the FOH subs... The bar is Stevie Ray's doowtown Louisville, Ky ...an original blues bar from way back! It's a shotgun building (long & narrow) stage on one side in the back, sound booth and patrons on the other side Subs are single 15" stacke...

Did you have FOH, or was the back line carrying the room?

FOH at this venue. I don't care for the wedge monitors suspended from the ceiling above the stage. I always think they'll drop and fall on someone's head and I'd have to sit there and watch! A drummers vantage point!

Re: Omni15 Tall Boy

Alright guys, great night, packed house, good venue & awesome music! Our stage 'sound' was very good. Bass player really liked the new cab in a live setting but did make mention that the mid horn was a bit bright for his liking hence the eq settings mentioned earlier. He had asked if there was a...

Re: Omni15 Tall Boy

Tonight is the night all of us will get the chance to hear the O15TB in a live setting. We are all excited to see how this cab performs. I'll follow up with an update tomorrow... stay tuned!

Re: Omni15 Tall Boy

Very cool! I've been considering a TallBoy build myself, partly out of curiosity and partly because these builds are a lot of fun. Was yours done from current plans? I thought that square driver opening was a prior version... The plans I used for this build were from the CD I had gotten from Bill b...

Omni15 Tall Boy

Haven't seen allot of these in the build threads so I'll do my part and add mine. Truly a fun build once a final direction was chosen. Easy, lots of fun and the sound... All I can say is "WOW" I heard every note clear as a bell! Very defined! This bass cab is happy to reproduce and does it...

Re: T39 build

Hey guys, Since my last post on this subject I have built another T39 and used the pair at a receint show with great success! Kick was nice and punchy and for the first time I could hear (and feel) my kick drum! I am quite pleased with the way these turned out and the cork sniffers had lots of quest...
