Just did a couple cooking events where I had the OTB15 with me. First was a pig roast with about 200 folks at a horse ranch in Perry Park here in Colorado. The speaker was primarily used to provide entertainment for the cook crew but a lot of other folks came by to hang out with us and listen to the music. Yesterday we did a crawfish boil for another 200+ person crowd.
Both events were outdoors and I was really happy with the way the speaker worked out - plenty of volume for the crowd that was milling around and I was pleasantly surprised at how well the bass sounded for being outdoors. For the crawfish boil I had the speaker sitting on a brick counter top about 3 feet off the ground and that seemed to help a lot with projection. In both cases we were under a covered picnic pavilion so maybe that helped.
I received quite a few comments from folks on how well it sounded and everybody was surprised that it was a DIY project.
Thanks for the great designs and plans Bill!
