The animals coming home from the pub late at night get a bit rowdy on the streets though, avoid those bastards like the plague.

just spoke to someone, and just found out i had 46 complaints filed against me when i turned up the stereo the other day.

If you can't even crack 50 then you need a WOPL.

BD, you should throw a weekly pigroast! The smell of broiling pork might run the middle easterners out of your building and maybe the neighborhood LMAO!

…. but that was mid afternoon and half the building was out.
if it was dinner time, I could've done a hundred easy!

… and no, I don't need a WOPL, although of course I'd like one, but I already have 2x Crown D150's, 2x Bryston 7B, a PL400 II, 2x PL700 II, and my beast, the Amcron MA2401.
I could do with some more 15" speakers tho'.

We could take up a crowd control collection...pigs , no extra charge..

 

[pennysdad]

I haven't been notified for any 'breaches' yet, but when I do, I'll just deny it, and say it was someone else.
Easy solved.
…. but D2 was right. Time to dig up the Sound FX collection. (and set up the 'big bins' outside on my balcony)

You need some 18' drivers.

I know……
better still, some Turbosound TSW-24 (24")
… and to think, I used to have four.

 

[laatsch55]

Didn't know they made a 24, what wa the f.r on that bugger...

 

[pennysdad]

i don't remember. but it was high, as it was meant to stack in clumps which brought it down considerable, and so still maintain a good power economy. pro'ly around 45Hz.
i'll look it up….

update: it was 37Hz

 

[laatsch55]

Well shit, what's the advantage then?

 

[pennysdad]

Well shit, what's the advantage then?

stick two together then it couples and goes down about 3-4Hz
stick four together, doubles that.
at proper gigs, i was running up to 8 per side. do the maths…...

 

[laatsch55]

Ok, let me find my pencil, is it exponential, doubles, then doubles the double?

 

[pennysdad]

8 would give you 21Hz.
but according to their tech sheet, they were useable to 17Hz.

 

[pennysdad]

the thing is, the bass frequencies most favourable at a live gig, is not necessarily as low as some people think it is.
in reality, 60 Hz is pretty well where it all happens. anything lower is pretty well wasted.

 

[laatsch55]

And anything below 28 can set up structure destroying resonance...

i could do with some of that right now….. (hummmmm…. got me thinkin'…)

 

[laatsch55]

Think Tesla......

 

[pennysdad]

right now, i'm thinking 'bed time'.

L8r hey.
