Quarantined with my wife for a week? I'd need Prozac and vodka, lots of it.

Re: New Jack 112 build
Started painting one of the Jacks, found some time to make the phase plug and spacer yesterday. Mental note: never promise your wife to do something whenever you will have enough time to do it, she will remember...
Re: New Jack 112 build
I would combine two Jacks 112: one with and one without the crossfiring blended array (for bass cab). Should I just use the wiring plans for the Jack 212. I would wire them parallel to get an 4 Ohm resitance, my amp delivers 700W at 4 Ohm.... Would I need different wiring if I use the one with blended array as a PA speaker? I suppose this one could have two different inputs then, one for use as part of a bass cab, one for use as PA...

Re: New Jack 112 build
Keep them independent.
Re: New Jack 112 build
Do you mean I just make them with the same low pass filter and add a high pass filter to the one with the blended array, as per the plans/jack 112? Then connect them with a speaker cable so that they are running parallel? This is not really my forte, hence my question....

Re: New Jack 112 build
That's correct. It's how I recommend doing a scalable bass rig, as one tweeter array in the upper cab has plenty of highs to keep up with the additional low and mid output from the bottom cab.

OK great, thanks Bill!
