Baltic Birch Supplier near Lexington, Kentucky, USA
I've gotten lots of Baltic Birch from Hardwood Specialties in Lexington, KY...but it looks like they're out of business. Searching isn't turning up much, I'd prefer to not have to drive 3 hrs to get some (but will if I have to :wink: ) Does anyone know of a supplier within 100 miles or so of Lexingt...

Re: SLA Pro - Powered
Then sprayed the grill with adhesive (never the foam - don't want to clog it all up). Laid the grill on top of the foam, then a piece of scrap plywood to cover it all and some weight on top of that. Love it, Bruce. The spray adhesive doesn't leak thru to the front of the grille before it dries? I r...

Re: What's to chat about?
Are any of you guys following Wintergaten - Martin Molen's build series of the MMX I check in on occasion, but because he keeps ripping it apart for the 58th time, I don't watch all the videos...I'm more of a 'check in every quarter and see what he's tearing apart now' kind of viewer...If/when he c...

Re: SLA pro or omnitop
Actually I haven't yet tried either SLAs or OTops, but...I have the melded array on my Jacks. The horizontal dispersion is amazing. If you're got 'audience spread out' and the venue is wide, I'd say that OTops with melded arrays will likely do a better job (cover more area) than the SLA Pros... Just...

Re: New Jack 112 build
One thing I also did was change the table saw blade for a better one. What a difference that makes... had it laying around for years :wall: Amazing how much better sharp tools work, right? ...where were you guys when I had smoke pouring off of my 1/2" roundover router bit a week ago? LOL.

Re: Before I soldered my DIY Cover for my Omni 12TB
Not sure if it'll work for you, but I use this to seal drivers and doors/panels/etc.

Re: Simplexx 112 Wedges
Installed the wiring and drivers...and tested. Sound great, don't seem to need a lot of EQ so far, though once I get them out of the garage and really crank them up I'll know more. I got them up to the 'I really don't want to be here' level without issue. I am definitely doing grills, just need to f...

Re: Active DI's- recommendations please.
Agree with Bruce on the passive stuff. I used to work with a production company that had all lower-end Whirlwind passive DI boxes. Once the Radial stuff hit and everyone was praising them, the company bought all new Radial stuff, mostly JDIs and some J48s. Us techs really couldn't tell much of a dif...

Re: Simplexx 112 Wedges
Is the baffle upside down? - (cutout closer to the shallow end?) Yep. Got it. Didn't notice till I had everything glued in and dried, of course. Had to doublecheck clearance, still plenty for the drivers. I really don't think think there's any downside. Maybe a little more top-heavy when setting on...

Re: Simplexx 112 Wedges
It seems you are making connectors on both ends. That is a great feature to have on stage monitors as it allows for easy daisy chaining with shorter cables and less stage clutter. I did the same on my WH8's and have never regretted it. Yes, absolutely. I did the same on the WH6s I built for my chur...

Simplexx 112 Wedges
(FYI, this won't be an extensive build thread...I'm not one to remember to stop and tape pics every step.) Building 4 Simplexx 112 wedges using the recommended Eminence Beta 12CX and ASD1001 HF drivers. Going to try without the side handles. I'd like to see how it is to pick up/carry with one strap ...

Re: What's to chat about?
It is, but I see some other similarities in your cabs I'm curious about. What's your feeling on the performance difference between your 15" and 32" cabs? Big difference? Honestly, tough for me to say. I had the two slims for a while before I built the 4 32"s. The slims were okay, if ...
