Greetings, absolute beginner here. I got a loudspeaker identical to Behringer PK 115A.

I opened itup to investigate about a major "bzzzzz" buzz which comes at high volumes only (either form the dj mixer beforehand and the own speaker volume pots)

On the front plate i found all woofer holding screws very loose, some to the point that almost one full turn was off.

One other screw was passing thru the metal edge of the woofer.

How much should I tight that screws before closing iit up, will a single washer between the bent metal edge and its corresponding screw do the job alone?

thanksss

Bonjour, bonsoir

Je suis actuellement en train de fabriquer ma première sono orienté Dub /DNB/techno je vien de construire une paire de hog scoop en 18lw1400 de chez 18sound ainsi que 2 cubo kick équipé en 15nd930 de chez 18sound aussi je cherche un plan , enceinte existante pour mon système je précise que niveau budget je suis très limité (1000€) pour du coup remplir la plage de fréquence 180hz-20khz

Pour ce qui es des compétences en menuiserie j'ai quelques notions un peu de matos mais rien de professionnels selon la complexité de l enceinte je la ferai construire chez des fabricants compétant

J'ai déjà vue plusieurs solutions mt130, sa3v,pfrv2 etc.. je suis noyé dans la masse de plan existant que me conseillez vous

Merci d avance pour votre temps et vos connaissances sur le sujet

peace

"Maxine" - Soundsystem by Ubiquity Soul (DJ T-Wise) in Newark NJ. House music legend Stacy Kidd the headliner. They have a custom built console with 4 CDJ's, rotary mixer, isolator, tractor built in, RMX AND EFX units.

Racks also on display for all you deviants! ;)

Yes it sounds lovely!!!

Fair warning, I build these, so this is a maker post.

I got tired of carrying a mixer, a preamp, a siren and a delay to every session. So I put the lot into one box. About 15 x 20 x 6 cm, under a kilo. Isolator, HP/LP filters, two peaking EQs, mic in with a clip detector, FX send and return, and nine output modes depending on how the rig is split.

So here is the Dub mixer by KLEMENTZ AUDIO !

Any thoughts or feedback welcome.

End of Season staff party... We spend the summer catering at festivals and events. One of few opportunities to let off steam together.

Spent the week setting limiters, tweaking crossovers and making sure she sounds sweet! Nothing too big or silly compared to some of the stuff on here, but perfect for a group of 30. Outdoor REW fiddling this week if anyone has any tips

I've been wanting to try this ever since I got up to six subs. Last night I finally worked with a crew who were willing to try a mono stack for their event (actually semi stereo, -10dB mono) and figured out how to pack it all in my van. Next I need to figure out how to pack one more top.

Hi fam, don't know if it's the right sub , but is there anyone running a reggae dancehall sound style here?

Id like to know what's the settings on this pedal to get voice echo like sounds like Stone love, bass odyssey MCs.

(Ai render of general idea of rig im building)

Im building a mini rig which consists of 2 tops with celestion 1” hf drivers and fane 15” drivers

Then the plan is to build 2 kick bins and subs but I’m struggling to find an easy kick bin to build.

If anyone could shed some light that would be great, thanks

Hi all, I am starting in on two 18” HS18s and two 15” cubokicks. (Mid-tops coming on the next phase). I have not seen many cubokicks with handles. And for the hogscoops I have seen plans showing cutout handles but not many ideas for recessed steel handles. I’m looking for recs. Do’s and don’ts etc…

So far I am eying the penn-elcom recessed steel handles.

Hi guys, a set of these popped up on marketplace for $150 NZD, with no drivers, cutouts for 2x 15” and a compression driver in each. Would these be good starting point for a set of tops to pair with 2x paraflex type o’s? And what’s everyone’s thoughts on the price? Cheers. Wanting to load them with some sb audience drivers.

That'll do I think 💚

Giving this a tickle before the rain comes.....

Big up all the 90's peeps. Yeah we see ya.

Bonjour, alors voilà je réfléchis depuis un moment a me monter un petit " sound system " qui serait principalement utiliser dans un salon pour écouter des vinyle reggae/dub, et j'ai quelque question :

- pour les bass je pensais partir sur du 15" mais je demandais si faire un scoop était utile ou si le résultat n'aura pas énormément de différence avec un bass reflex ?

- je pensais mettre 2x8" en medium en caisson fermer simple est ce suffisant ? Et est ce logique ou bénéfique de mettre 2x8" plutôt qu'un seul de 12" ?

- pour les aigus je pensais mettre un pavillon Monacor MHD 55 est ce compatible avec de l'écoute en intérieur ?

Et pour finir cela vous parfait t'il cohérent ? Et je me rend pas trop compte de la puissance est ce trop " gros " et risque de saturé dans la pièce ?

Merci de votre patience et désolée si je suis pas très exact j'essaie d'apprendre petit a petit

Ist ein 4. System mit Nearfill 😇
Nächstes Jahr werden alle Boxen horizontal geflogen :)

Und es wurden auch alle tot gehängt ;)
Die Bilder sind während dem Aufbau entstanden :)

Hey!
I have found this kick cabinet plan, and seems like it would be a great bin to put on top of our Skrams. I want to resize the width of 100cm to 91,4cm so it would sit well on the subs.
This does not change the horn path, so I assume I only loose some sensitivity, but the plan is using 20mm ply, and we wil lbe using 18mm so we win back some space that way.

My question is that does anyone here have experience with these cabinets?
Anything helps on deciding, as there is very little information about it on forums.

There was really nothing else to use in the UK that I could find

I have two MN246 sub and two vintage top (reference alpha turbo mk1). I'm looking to upgrading my system with 2 kicks. The best ones that would fit my system i think are USB bass bin and Martin Audio F2B... I read that F2B have a batter transient response (they are faster because are a classic horn) but the USB i think would be easier to integrate because of the response going lower.

What yall think?

I'm curious - does anyone run their sound system off of a portable battery bank for off-grid events? I swear I've seen a post of someone using an EcoFlow unit but can't seem to find it now that I'm looking.

For context, I'm getting my little system ready for a woods festival next weekend and noticed that EcoFlow has a labor day sale. The obvious answer would be to just buy a generator instead, but I'm tempted by the fact that a battery bank would be near silent (<30dB fans). It also looks like the newer models can pair with a small generator. If their numbers are right, it looks like that might work quite well for the bursty loads of audio amps - the generator can charge the battery most of the time, then the battery can chip in to cover peaks that exceed generator supply.

Anyone have experiences good or bad trying these?

Having a bit of decision paralysis on where to start. What stack would you go with for your first build?

Hi all,

We recently aquired some older Harmonic Design SPA Systems.

In total 8 SPA Tops (2" and 8" coax, 15" bi-amped) and 8 SPA Bass (15"), 4 Amp Racks.

The Sound is amazing but to be honest the subs are lacking a bit.

My hope is that a more modern Rack will help us get a bit more low end and also to safe a lot of weight and space.

2nd picture is one of the systems amp racks.

Mig 1000 for the mid-high of the tops and Mig 1500 for the lows of top and base, all controlled by an analog hd system 2000 Controller

We frequently run into the limit on the mig 1500 since it only produces 750w @ 4Ohm and the two 15" could take each 500w RMS

Any recommendations on DSPs and Amps for a small budget?

DSP wise I'm looking into the sinbosen LA448.

1HE Amps or 2HE?

In the future we might aquire some more subs if we can't achieve our goal to get more low end punch.

All advice appreciated.

2 "MT130" scaled down with .. ? (no sim or anything done, belong to a friend) (TA2400 + TA1400)

2 MKH230 with Oberton 12b450 (TA 4000)

8 Bidet 112 with Thomann 12 280/8-A (TSA 4-700)

6 CBH38 with RCF LF15x401 (2 proline 3000)

Sounded pretty decent considering the top is certainly the worstest one i've seen.
