Probably not a good idea because it would be too symmetrical with the round driver cone, making for uneven response.DaveK wrote:What I was thiking was a circle of the same diameter as the throat opening. It would look something like this (thanks for the pic, Leland.)

The opening would be too small, bass response would suffer.DaveK wrote:What I was thiking was a circle of the same diameter as the throat opening.

How would it affect the sound if the outside of the cutout in the new Jack baffles was round instead of square?

Re: Four Jack Stack
Yes, like that. I asked this before but nobody must have noticed. I don't have current plans, does the OT12 have a similar baffle now?

Yes. Precuts are on the way.

Sweet. At that price it's worth not having to take the time to make it myself. Of course, it will probably be next summer before I am ready to start them. Wish I could build during the winter.LelandCrooks wrote:Yes. Precuts are on the way.
