PLWO's or WOPL's????????????

[BubbaH]

GoodNESS!!!! For some reason I had it in my head it would be much less than that, simply based on the build your own idea.

New Klipsch are 9K a pair....

 

[BubbaH]

Makes sense then. Fair bit of savings to be had.

My Yorkville Elite 401 speakers were 2500+ tax.

Well, better get my ass to gettin the rest of the components. Ya gonna build your own horns?? How do you and wood get along??

Not to bad... I've not got alot of fancy wood working tools !!! Just have to see what your talking about

Bubba , there are some corners that can be cut, but it's mainly being in the right place at the right time and knowing the right people. That's another thing about this place that helps us all. Last year dingus alerted us to 2-sets of K-Horn cabinets in Washington state. After getting him to hold em I dispatched a friend on a road trip to get em in the middle of winter (and yes there is a thread on this) 50.00 for each cabinet. Super quality work and in graet shape. I had 200 in buying them 1200-1400 getting them here and promptly sold em to Chris and Kevin. About the same time member Skratch came accross a killer deal on some BMS-4592 2" compresion drivers, considered by most to be th best drivers in the world, for 200 each. Gobbled up as many of those as we coukld. The woofs were a bargain from Crites. The crossovers are the only thing I couldn't get much of a break on. Chris and Kevin are in their K's for 2500.00 plus shipping--------The power of Phoenix and it's people!!!! 3000.00 worth on that deal.

Kev, go to Fastlane Audio, we even have a link, AND A BUILD THREAD--"Elliptrac 400" horns. I, myself are not doing another pair of those, I'll buy em assembled....

Will they substitute for a set of cpr paddles-=--CLEAR!!!!---ZAP????

 

[BubbaH]

Haha not sure about that Lee. They kick out the jams pretty good though. Combined with the 901's I like to think it sounds pretty good. One woofer needs some work though.

 

[laatsch55]

One on each side of the chest might work.....

 

[laatsch55]

member --chris--- can refoam and recone woofs.....

 

[BubbaH]

I did my 901's. These are a bit of a different story though. I also have a set of project Cerwins im gonna re do myself. Yorkville is only about 45 mins from my house. Theyll be fixing that one whenever I get around to it.

 

[laatsch55]

Those are part of the deal Kev. I'll buy em and have em shipped to your place....

 

[laatsch55]

I get my new cabs from Skratch I may lottery these too.....

 

[laatsch55]

Gotcha Bubba....

Wooden Horns

I've lost the link for the wooden horns....the ones where you can buy the kit and glue all the pieces together and then sand like crazy. Is that still the best way to go? I have got to get on the horns. I have everything else. Can Skratch CNC these horns? Or does anyone have any for sale? I gotta get my La Scala project finished, and wooden horns are the last upgrade.

Maybe I sold askfirst.........is it worth the extra money an wok to do the wooden horns?

 

[laatsch55]

Sutton, check Skratch's and I's "Elliptrac 400" build thread. The link to "Fastlane Audio" is on the index page with Joe and the others.

Absolutely!!

Yes, that was aimed at you, but with hilarious intent!

Yea.. I can do that.. But... If your not doing another pair they must be pretty rough to put together ! Can I put about 6 coats of polyurethane on the sanding each coat and make them look like galss !!!!!
