That's a T36. It was replaced in the lineup by the T60.

Bill normally deletes old designs, so even if you ask, you probably won't be able to get plans.
Your only option for 2 more cabs then becomes buying from someone else, or starting from scratch with a different design...

Bunter's Audio and Lighting "like"s would be most appreciated...

Re: need help identifying this cabinets
The T60 is larger in volume, but easier to maneuver being oblong.

Bill, would the T60 and the T36 work together?
Or does the phase differences between the two designs make it a non mix solution?

The T60 is easier to handle, and performs better.dimachertnik wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 7:54 pmjust curious why it was discontinued? and why no more designs available?Bill Fitzmaurice wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 12:29 pm That's a T36. It was replaced in the lineup by the T60.
Bill usually deletes his master file of a superceded design.
Therefore he can't produce one for sale...

Re: need help identifying this cabinets
There's the phase difference, and the response is also different. The T60 is 5dB higher in sensitivity at 30Hz.Grant Bunter wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 5:30 pm Bill, would the T60 and the T36 work together?

Re: need help identifying this cabinets
If true, seems a little short sighted. Other than lack of current builders to contribute recent community construction support, I can't think of any reason not to sell a set of discontinued plans to someone in the situation this guy is in.Grant Bunter wrote: ↑Sun Mar 26, 2023 8:06 pm Bill usually deletes his master file of a superceded design...
If it is truly the case, I've got to imagine there's a certified builder that still has plans and could build a pair for the guy.
If there's a will...

Seems to me that the OP has bought pre used cabs, or he would have plans already.
That's not an excuse per se, but IMHO it would make more sense to build from scratch the better performing more recent design. 5dB @ 30hz is nothing to be sneezed at.
My wife is a stickler for "didn't use it in the last 12 months, throw it out" school, and it has to be at least 5 years since I recall a request for T36 plans.
Apart from that, when it comes to my business, people can offer up whatever they want in terms of advice or in discussion, but it doesn't mean I will change what I do.
I imagine, in this, Bill is the same. He is running his business how he sees fit...

Re: need help identifying this cabinets
im looking to buy or build the another pair because of the size and looks of the cabinets. the size fits my mids and hi by size perfectly. The T60 way way way too long to fit in my needs and space provided.

Re: need help identifying this cabinets
I no longer have a copy of the T36 plans but you could scale up the T30 by a factor of 1.2 to get a close approximation. That's how the T36 was arrived at.
