Re: TLAH OR PRO'S FOR THEATER

Basically what I was planning from that pic, Just wasn't sure the height of that room. Thoughts on TLAH or Pro TLAH? Would I benefit from the pro in this room? Does the SLA center (horizontal) need to be angled towards the seating area or is level near ceiling level okay? TIA My plans are to use a T...

Bash 300 mounting questions

I have a bash 300 for my THT. I built a cherry box to enclose it in. It is not finished but I am questioning how much airflow the bash needs? Anyone have any thoughts on this? Just setting it there, it seems to get pretty warm. I'm worried that if I enclose it in the box, sized large enough to fit t...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

Bill, I have hardwood floors. Will this be fine on the floor our should I put a small carpet under it, maybe rubber drawer liner? You need a carpet or rugs covering at least 80% of the floor. Otherwise you'll end up with subway acoustics. Wood looks nice, sounds bad. That's not really an option rig...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

Alright, we're about done. Mounted the access panel screwdown plates. Basically a frame on the inside to screw the access panel into. I mounted the woofer before I put the side on, just because it is easier. Covered the woofer with some packing paper in case I get any major PL drippage. Put the side...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

yup, Live and learn. It's not off by a lot but enough that I'm not just putting it on top (the side) and glueing/nailing.

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

Cabinet and all braces minus the final optional brace is complete. I need to put one side on it still. I am a little out of square now. I assume its from clamping and pulling it towards the middle to get a good fitment on the braces. Gonna square up the final side piece as close as I can and then tr...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

So this is slowly coming along. I have the horn complete, building inside to out. Need to put the braces in on the last section of the interior horn, then I'll be able to do the outside as well as the required braces. I think I can get most of this done on Sunday. I have a lot of pics but the forum ...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

TIP While I'm thinking about it, I highly recommend you cut the width of all your pieces at once. I rough cut everything and then I went back and cut the width with the table saw set in the same position. Everything is exact and that will make this build a lot easier. So far the toughest bit has be...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

I agree with you Bruce for PA cabs but the OP wants to stain this cabinet cherry. Screw holes and even brad holes may not be desirable in a furniture grade cabinet. Guess I should'a read a little deeper. But, BB is not the greatest wood to stain. Might be better to wrap the cab in veneer or a thinn...

Re: 15" THT 36X36X27

Yes the biscuits are far easier on thicker. Thicker is generally easier because you have more surface to work with on the sides. I mean if thickness didn't matter, why not just use 3/8" or 1/4"? In a 4x8 sheet of plywood, 5/8" weighs 8 lbs more than 1/2". So a 5x5 standard baltic...

That would require a total redraw of the plans.

Because it's easier to work with. It would change your dimensions by 1/8".

5x5 is the standard size for BB, 4x8 is the odd one.

I know. I asked about it at the place I buy from and they said they can get it in any thickness at 8x4
