Wow, that is a reality check. So, with two T39s, go with two OTop 12s? or two Jack 112s perhaps?Bill Fitzmaurice wrote:The cabinet.

I always find it amusing when I see on other forums guys with 2x15 tops asking what single small sub they can use with them.

Very nice man. I hope to post pics of my Otop 12's soon. These will be playing with my pair of 18" Tuba 30's.

Thanks for the info. Two T48s are in the works.

Got the 2nd cabinet built and am powering with a Behringer EP2000 350wx2 at 8ohm. We moved the 4 ohm resistor bewteen the capacitor and the lead. The tweeter array was a little hot by default. Sounds fantastic now. Really impressed.

Off to build the T48s now.

Re: My First Cabinet Build (pics)
It is all my 4 T48s can do to keep up with my four Otop15s. I would say that they almost need 2 more T48s. Consequently we have to more T48's planned for build.
So let it be written ... So let it be done.
