250/T48

NAKED DR250's and a pair of T48's, slowly putting on their coverings.
Been a while since I completed anything, seem like all my projects get halted for one reason or another.
Phone pics, not the best quality.

I like the grain pattern matching in the T48 on the right...
My biggest worry is that when I'm dead and gone, my wife will sell my toys for what I said I paid for them.

I see I am not the only one who thinks by adding a cat to a T48 you gain an extra 3DB.

Very nice cabs.

It won't be hooked up, but my 5th always stays at the church sub was needing a storage location. I have two crammed behind an organ and two under all my OT12's in a storage closet. Looked around and decided using it as a 4ft stand to get a little Carvin 1x15 bass amp up at head level was a good way to go. You do lose the floor loading, but dang it looks impressive.

You would need a magnifying glass to locate that amp :loler:
For shits n giggles it would be fun to hear how loud a T48+DR250 could be driven from the Minx. It might surprise some.

The most difficult part is the 100 Hz passive crossover.
Very pricey for the parts, and something I would otherwise never use.

The charts say a T48 is good for 123 SPL at 100 Hz from 35 watts.

Customer. My rental customers can barely operate the Omni 10's and peavey head, let alone a separate sub and top system.
