Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build
looks excellent so far. it really is addictive to build bill's cabs. it's been 2 years since i started my first biuld and i haven't stopped since.
building BFM speakers isn't a hobby , it's an addiction

Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build
people that stick their fingers in a speaker deserve to get stabbed 
Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build
I wasn't worried about them, to be honest 
but leaving it without a grill doesn't seem like a good idea. The plans don't mention anything like a grill...

Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build
Maybe you should use a piece of scrap wood when fastening, before piercing that kind of holes. You will avoid marks.

I only needed the plug, the rest of the plywood is scrap, so any marks don't matterrainbass wrote:Maybe you should use a piece of scrap wood when fastening, before piercing that kind of holes. You will avoid marks.

It might be an unnecessary cost but I would like to be sure. I'll google for them!
Meanwhile I'm ready to put the Midrange Horn together. I'll post some pics later on...

Re: Omni 15 Tallboy - my first build
The phase plug in the baffle panel is slightly larger (about 1/16") than the one glued on it, which has the correct size. Should I correct that or is there nothing to worry about?
