Oodles of DIY goodness :)

Is your DEQ different to mine? Mine only goes up to 120db and it's been at 117.5 with only a pair of OT12s and T39s.

Nice setup though, I need to look into getting a custom rack assembled.

I don't know if its different

Mine is a late '11 build. I was certain the peak read 122 and hit the same peak more than once. Maybe I'm just wishing...
Could the difference be 4 x T39s and 2 x DR 250?

Thanks for the compliment

You could probably retrofit Speakons in place of the XLR outputs on the Jands Power amps. At the very worst, you'll have to open up the hole to a 15/16" or 24mm if the old style male XLRs were used; they only required about a 3/4" hole. While you're at it, provided you never run these in bridge mode, you could flip the phase on wiring to the output jacks, and you're done.

My problem is making a 24mm hole quickly. Finding a 24mm/ 15/16" metal hole saw is a PITA, or the reamers required to get it there from some nearby store. I have a 25mm hole saw and a 23mm spade bit (with a quick bit of filing this is a better option for my WH8's as the 25mm leaves a slight gap, ie not sealed, other than my new best friend, holt melt glue).

I wouldn't use a holesaw. They don't cut an exact size hole because they wobble slightly as they cut.

Greenlee and other make a stepped bit that although aggressive, cuts a nice hole.

I've done so many of these that I bought a 15/16" chassis punch; it's expensive, but it lasts for years if you keep the threads oiled.

I have one of the stepped bits....I built a couple of rack panels with 'em. Kinda' messy and you have to be careful that you don't go too far and make too big of a hole - but still cheap and functional.
