Wedge 6 top tips for newbies

#1 Post by Cooltone »

1) Important to follow the advice about keeping the top of the baffle touching the cabinet. This alignment helps with trimming the correct amount off the horn mouth.

Otherwise you might trim too much and the piezos will not fit on the horn sides. (You at the back, you can stop laughing now)

2) The access flanges that attach to the Top and Lower Back can be installed in two ways.

Choose the wrong way and you will not be able to fit the driver through the access hole. (Again, you at the back, you can stop laughing now)

Have fun, I did! :D

Nice write up. I appreciate the writing style and humor :thumbsup:

I would completely enjoy seeing pics of your finished project (or unfished) and a little product review if you're inclined to share them.

How are you using the Wedgehorn 6 and how's it working out for you so far?

Thanks.

I'll post something in a couple of weeks. It's school holidays and I'm at home with the boys! 🦸🏻‍♂️
