Anyone ever tried a tangband TL?

JoeBob · 28th March 2003, 02:28 AM

I've seen posters mention a TL with tangband drivers (namely the W3-871S) but never heard of anyone ever following through with it. My questions is, has anyone? I know planet10 suggested an alphaTL arrangement with the 871S as well as one of those exotic drivers he had. I've got two W3-871Ss in a dipole configuration and am very happy, but due to size I'd like to experiment with different enclosures, so I thought I might pop them in a TL to see. But I thought I'd check to see if anyone had any experience with this yet.

Joebob- Yes, I have...see:here It is a design that Steve figured in his head, on the phone, in about 90 seconds, that essentially assumes a cabinet size equal to the (sealed-box) requirement for 4 TB's on a tapered, 30" TL stand.

If you email me, I'll send you a sketch.

I'd love a sketch, but the board won't let me email you...
