Re: New here, new project

Plans ordered. A Titan 39 is a given, and I'll take a look at both DR250 and Omni Top 12 plans to see what looks like the way to go. Probably the DR, but maybe not. If this works as well as it sounds like it can, I might be able to convince my brother to get rid of his Ampeg rig and go for a set lik...

Re: New here, new project

OK, now I'm a little confused again. Does the OTop response extend to lower frequencies or does the DR extend lower? And, if it does, does it really matter if it is sitting on top of a T39? I'm really liking the idea of a T39, by the way. It looks like it has the kind of evil presence every bass pla...

Re: New here, new project

What's the difference between an Omni 12 and a DR250? Build complexity isn't really an issue for me, while efficiency is. I would probably use just the top for rehearsal, the whole stack for shows. I'm thinking about adding a P-Bass to the arsenal, either to replace the Thunderbird or just as an add...

Re: New here, new project

A 3012HO loaded OTop 12 atop a 3012LF loaded T39 or 3015LF loaded T48 of the same width will have those guitar'd players crying for their mommies. T39 for standard tuning, T48 for drop tuning. This sounds great, but you are going to have to forgive me for needing a translator. Let me see if I have ...

Re: New here, new project

Good questions, and here are some answers, more or less. Music runs a whole range, with a whole range of sounds I try to get out of my equipment. I play with people who do covers for the most part, so the sound ranges from a 1950s, almost acoustic sound, through an Entwhistle scooped sound, and fina...

Re: New here, new project

Gotcha. Guess it might as well go back into the bass scoop. Then I can start from scratch to build a cabinet which does what I want it to do. How big is a T48?

Re: New here, new project

Here's what I can find for it - assuming it works and assuming it is correct. Both are questionable! It should open up a pdf of the original specs from the manufacturer, from back when it was manufactured. http://www.audioheritage.org/vbulletin/attachment.php?attachmentid=29464&d=1195251435 'Cou...

New here, new project

Hey all, I have a pretty specific bunch of questions you can probably answer. Background - I am a bass player and currently own an old bass scoop cabinet with a 15" Cetec Gauss 4580 in it. The speaker is great. The cabinet is unwieldy at best and doesn't provide enough projection to justify it'...
