Re: Auto Tuba What tools do I need?

It can be built with a circular saw and jigsaw as the only power tools. More power tools than that are nice, but not an absolute necessity. AFAIK Noah built the Ark without any power tools. :mrgreen: +1 on all accounts! I built my AT with a circ. saw, jig saw, clamps, two foot square, and a drill. ...

Jason, are you putting in all the panel braces after the panels are on, but before the side panels?

-1 on MDF. Go for a five-ply spruc/pine/fir instead. (with the usual void-free layers.....)

Re: It just never ceases to amaze me!

Bills cabs are in a whole different league...not to mention 100+ amps less power draw. Again Bill...GREAT work! I was wondering what exactly it was that you meant...I'm a little thick here. Are they as good or better? or louder? or cleaner? Also, I was curious how many ohms your OT2x12s are. Thanks.

Out of curiosity, are you making sure that the horn paths are of the correct sizes/widths?

Re: Best sound set up for Jacks 110 & the T39 ?

If you were to have just one device I think it should be the DCX2496, since it has cross-overs, parametric EQ, and limiting, all on each output. This is a little bit more than the DEQ2496.

Re: Soldering help

You need rosin-core solder......the thinner size being easier to get flowing.
The above post has good advice too (even though I can get by with a gun).
