Gumby Lives !!!

[Andy G]

height = 2m
drivers at initial stage, per side...
10 x Vifa P11WH 3,2,2,3 taper 4.8ohm... open back at present !!

1 tweeter: currently using a pair of KEF T15's, of dubious origin, slightly horn loaded. I don't think they have quite enough sensitivity, but not too bad considering cost ;-) !. Tweeter baffle removable with maybe Peerless horn tweeter in mind when funding available !

1 Eminence Gamma 12 in 65L sealed (may be vented later to pi-align type, 40Hz tuned, if insufficient bass)

cross-over... undefined as yet, been doing the cabinets...big coils for 3-way arriving in next day or so!!

Hopefully pics on Thursday evening US time !!

What the heck is US time? Can we borrow it for use in Canada?

I just wish.....

I always thought you were nuts Andy and now I know You never do an easy construction job.

BTW, did the Coneheads ever get finished?

Cheers

 

[Andy G]

Conehead....:-(

unfortunately the tedious nature of the cutting all those darn circles, and the problem that they are getting too small for the router to get at, means that Conehead is still in LIMBO

Sorry !!

I may come up with an alternative method at some stage or somehow find the motivation.. who knows !!!

Coneheads. Coneheads. Coneheads
