Hi everyone, new venue install here

Hey everyone, I am overseeing an installation for a sound system in a new venue, and am interested in potentially going the DIY route.
I've come here to learn about the potential benefits of a custom-made cabs over perhaps a more generic pro system.
 
Thank so much for the reply! These look amazing, how complex is the build?
I have come across a local builder who has been building Syntripps and MEH horns so they are an option.

One slightly crazy component is I’m hoping to get a setup suitable for ambisonics. Starting with 9 full range in a sphere formation. So size is an issue as the flying height is just 3m and over heads in one area

Hi again Nat.........
I had a carpenter/furniture maker (Google translate) make my cabinets, and even very solid and completely done according
to the build guide, the charge was around 300£. The rest is fairly simple...... even the crossover.
My complete cost for every part incl. paint and even the paint brush came to less than 900£ for both speakers, which I found was
an unbeatable bargain 👍 😉
