Re: Outdoor T30 setup query (boundary loading)

Just a quick review on this. I ended up loading the subs against the house as planned and it worked out perfectly. Plenty of headroom with the pair of V plated T30s. Didn't get many photos of the setup but can see it below.

Re: 4x T48 and 4x OT12 build

Question regarding the damping foam inside the OT12s. Looking at the sketch up and build threads I do not see people putting foam on the backs of the horn panels. Only on surfaces facing the back of the driver cone (top/bottom/back/sides). I assume this is just to damp the direct reflections from t...

Re: Outdoor T30 setup query (boundary loading)

Hehe guilty as charged.. I definitely am more biased to the low frequencies :D

If I do setup against the house, the subs will be a foot from the wall.

Re: Outdoor T30 setup query (boundary loading)

Yeah ok. So at 35hz that's about 2.5m.. I'll see how viable it will be to aim at the house.

Cheers!

Re: Outdoor T30 setup query (boundary loading)

Thanks Bill. Would I be better off then setting the subs up facing the house to fire out onto the grass? Or just setup firing directly out from the stone wall. I could try a few different setups as I'll have a bit of time to play with.

Outdoor T30 setup query (boundary loading)

Brains trust, I am doing a small 2xT30 / 2xOT12 setup in a mates backyard on a rural property this weekend. Examining the low quality pictures below you will see my proposed setup idea. In the interest of maximising SPL I'll be Vplating the subs, and I'd like to utilise the small stone wall structur...

Re: 4x T48 and 4x OT12 build

Mate, solid build thread! It's easy to see progress pictures and think how easily those cabs are coming together, but once you've built some you know just how much work has gone into each progress pic! Looking forward to seeing your herd fully assembled :)

Re: OT12 / T30

Thanks Seth, yeah I'm impressed with how these subs just keep doing their thing! We do heavy electronic music with relentless and deep bass lines and they take the punishment! Haven't lost a single driver to date, and we usually sneak the high pass to 28hz when we have all 6 tethered.. just gotta ke...

Re: Otop 12 Build: 1 Pair

I LOVE this critter screen idea. I've been thinking about how I'll tackle that problem since here in Arizona we have plenty of the little buggers and they would absolutely get in there and make a mess. After years of gigging with these how did you like the screens? Would you have changed anything a...

OT12 / T30

Just an old rig from 9 years ago still going strong! Had these out last weekend and thought I'd share a couple pics I took. 6 T30s is a perfect match for 2 OT12s, although I should really build another pair of tops for more even coverage (not spl). We ran the whole system for 2 days on batteries and...

Re: Otop 12 Build: 1 Pair

9 years and many gigs later, I finally got around to finishing these off with a set of grills! 9mm hex holes, 62% open 1.3mm galvanised steel. Painted matte black. Did up some mounting blocks to attach them. Reckon they look mint!

Re: Tuba 30 bass sick Dual kappalite 3012LF

Single dual loaded T30: HP 35hz, LP 100hz
Pair dual loaded T30: HP 30hz, LP 100hz

I never bother bringing any mains lower than 100hz with these subs even if they have the ability to.

Re: Tuba 30 bass sick Dual kappalite 3012LF

You'll be happy with the OT12s, they are amazing. My pair keeps up with my 6 T30s outdoors if that gives you any idea..
