Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build

Maybe you should use a piece of scrap wood when fastening, before piercing that kind of holes. You will avoid marks.

Re: Omni15 FR

something close to that : http://irael.free.fr/omni15/bracing1.jpg http://irael.free.fr/omni15/brace2.jpg Maybe the connection between bracers only amplify it. It not huge huge vibration. Just enough to move small object like the 6 pounds markbass amp. It will move far less with carpet on it. Maybe ...

Re: Omni15 FR

What do you mean Greg? The silicone gasket has been removed and replaced as proposed earlier. It's has been closed since, of course.

Re: Omni15 FR

thanks Bill. On the second gig, we had an"anti-slide" temporary carpet and a guitar amp. Nothing moved, better sound. Where would you add bracing ? on the top of the horizontal bracer ?

Re: Omni15 FR

Hello, Fastening the woofer solved the problem. I made test with the head of my SWR WP 15 (200W with 4 ohms). Very deep and clear tone. I tried also a 500W 4 ohms Trace Elliot head. Better sound but less power despite the 300/350W on a 8 ohms load. I don't understand. Finaly i went with a Markbass L...

Re: Omni15 FR

Thanks for the answers. I closed it today thanks to Rune's comment. The back is air tight. When i increase the low frequences, i can hear some little and short cracks & pops. They must be leaks. Most of them are located in the woofer's gasket. I may not have fastened it enough, i was not sure. I...

The cab is almost finished (missing access panel) and sounds great in mid-high. this section is louder than my prev...

I'm fond of homemade stuff and evil projects, so i couldn't stand looking at beautifull BFMs on french bass boards without ...
