Have dabbled in a few horns and cabs over the past 15 years, including Tannoy GRFs, Lowther, GOTO, Klipsch etc.

This latest burst is using advanced CNC and lovely Euro Birch to build the A7 and my own designed smaller bass cab.

The cabs show Azura 340Hz and JBL 2445s on top.

Active xover used with 500Hz point.

Very rich bass and fast/dynamic....a good combo.

Driver is 515G.

Will do some tests soon.

Pics of A7....I think it's the most reinforced and heavy VOTT ever.

Used three different tuning panels, including fully blocked, oval port at 50% of the standard opening, plus the full opening.

Have 416s and 515Gs to play around with for this cab.

Played with recording to test the cab...and have added three discrete sets of EQ to get a lovely smooth response.

Thanks guys.

For the 820, I even built a 1/3 size model all CNC'd in 10mm cardboard using a CNC box cutting machine.
