plans for eminence 12" fr ? - Click HERE for Original Thread
brookbh
I believe one of the spawn family was being worked on for the eminence 12" fr, has it been released yet or are there any plans out there out there for these speakers? I don't have room for the BIBs for these as they are going up in a 3rd floor apartment. Any suggestions?

Hammer Super 12 design.

A 12" double horn is a lot of lumber. If it doesn't work out you can move into it.

Making a BIB for such a rascal might be interesting. But it would still be huge.

That leaves a half chang or other design which would give the
presence of the Super 12 modified for horn lovers.

anyone know rough dimensions, like height and width? I'm guessing its not small since its for a 12" fr and the thing has wheels on the back, lol.

Seems appealing as the cost of the drivers are $60 each plus some fostex ft17s are like $40 each, anyone know what size cap to use ?

Below is a link to version 0v9 from the Frugal Horn website. I would guess these require a very large room to be implemented for HiFi use. I have four of the 12LTA's, and a pair of Fostex FT-17H on hand for a future project.

Just a note that the infamous Pioneer B20 and the Dayton ND20FB-4 are going on sale 06/06/08 at Parts Express for those pondering the Moose Chang variants.

How much power would i need for a the b20 + dayton nd20 3/4 tweet in a BIB or moose chang? how much power for the eminence 12" beta fr + ft17 in a maria?

I am considering using a t-amp or a PA rack amp like a crown or behringer reference.. any suggestions?

Also the eminence lab 12" sub woofer is on sale for $132 with free shipping at PE.

Yes it is! Thank you Micc!

>>> I am considering using a t-amp...

I use my T-amp with the B20 all day long for the last few years and it's a great combination. The B20 is about 90db per watt and i listen at low volumes but in the evening after work i do occasionally turn it up and tend to get visitors - depending on the choice of music. Whenever i play jazz (anything with a dirty sax) a former sax player always ends up listening with me. The sound is very dynamic and natural. It's a great combo IMO.

Not sure about the Eminence but it might be an even better combo. I'd certainly like to try it out.
