Re: Dayton SA240 random turn on

Thanks I will. It definitely wasn't a hum. It sounded like a bass-heavy scene from a movie, but nothing else was on (not the other amp, tv, Blu-ray, etc).

Dayton SA240 random turn on

So I bought a new, Dayton SA240 for my autotubas about 5-6 years ago. It's worked fine every time I've use it. But for some straaaannngge reason, last night, my wife and I were startled out of bed by some really loud, low noise. Tornado? Weather radar looked fine.... Wife said "it sounds like y...

Re: 2x TLAH pro in progress...

Done. I am so happy with how things came out. I started this entire build 6 months ago. All.jpg Just one data point so far...I ran my SPL meter up and down the front of one TLAH Pro, one meter away, while music was playing, and I was measuring about ~94-~97dB; higher numbers where the SPL meter came...

Done.

On a side note...I have a lot of polyfill sitting around. Can you stuff the SLA Pro's with polyfill? Would that matter?

Re: 2x TLAH pro in progress...

That's good news to me!

(I think my 165W/channel (MAX) HT receiver should be just fine)

Thanks Bill

Re: 2x TLAH pro in progress...

Doh! I put the crossover near the terminus because that's how it looked in the sketch-up. If I move the crossover to the closed end and add stuffing....is it really any different than leaving the crossover near the open end and stuffing? I guess my only apprehension to add stuffing near the crossove...

Re: 2x TLAH pro in progress...

Question about stuffing for the TLAH Pros. How much is "enough"? 20190320_195633.jpg The plans look different, and if I don't put any stuffing between the mouth and the first brace (such that the top 2 woofers don't have any polyfill behind them) is that...ok? Also, has anybody built a box...

Over cementing

I've over cemented my tweeters tweet.jpg I looked through the forums for anything related to "'cement" and how to get rid of excess. I think the closet thing I saw (once you have too much cement, not before cementing) was to use 320 grit sandpaper. True? I tried using a razor blade, which ...

Re: ...and 3x SLA Pros to go with them

It's so nice when you finally have time to put into your projects. 20181201_134405.jpg I think Gorilla glue should send me a Christmas card. 20181201_140415.jpg Almost done.... 20181202_132628.jpg Finally, the first (of three) is done! The other two are close behind. 20181202_183131.jpg
