A Les Paul and a Twin Reverb. It doesn't get any better than that!

A Les Paul and a Twin Reverb. It doesn't get any better than that!

Jeenie, That's quite an eclectic collection of amps and guitars. I like it!
My LP was a special order as Gibson didn't offer the wine red flametop in that particular model. I almost went with...
Thanks Harvey! Looks like we have this figured out. I'll build two backs so the cab can be run either open or closed. Should I insulate the sides, top, and bottom like the old Bandmaster/Showman? ...
Hi Harvey, It's a Les Paul with 57 pups. Amazing sustain and resonance. I'm a classic rock kind of guy (late 60's - early 70's). And love the blues - Gary Moore.
I have a Ceriatone blackface...
Allen, Great idea! I can design the cab with the middle 1/3 of the back panel removable. Then I have both configurations.
Jeenie, using half of your dimensions I can build the cab 22H X 20W X...
Thanks John. Some first hand experience would be fantastic. The decision is open back, closed back, ported. Thirty years ago I had a Bandmaster with JBLs and loved the tone, so I'm leaning towards...
I'd like to build a small speaker cabinet for a single D120-F. This will be driven by a 1972 Traynor YRM-1 50W tube guitar amp. Fender used these speakers in Bandmasters and a bunch of other amps. ...
OK, I think I've got it...
Not a lot needs to be done in way of improvements
No reason to go with a JBL woof
Factory x-overs are reasonable (consider a Zilch mod)
...
I’m looking for opinions and thoughts on a project I’m considering. This is a bit of a nostalgia kick. I would like to build a set of speakers that have the look, feel, and sound (within reason) of...
"It riles them to believe that you can perceive the web they weave!"
Pink Floyd Block - Dark Side of the Moon, The Wall, Meddle. The music is low, tubes are glowing, and the sub is adding a soft thump to it all. Have to say, it's a nice night to enjoy!
Heather, as well as the power tool mentioned above, my most useful tools are several 3' - 4' quick release clamps (Home Depot, Rockler, etc.). These things have a million uses. Don
Thank you Heater and Rob for the info. Chopping the middle out of Giskard's x-over looks like a good place to start. This project will take a few months to complete as I have limited time to spend...
I've decided to build the 4344 recently detailed in the DIY forum. I will use these in a tri-amped system. For this reason the only passive x-over I'll need in the speakers will be for the 2123 and...
This is the sort of project I've been looking for. Instead of building a pair of subs, I'll use the 2235Hs in these. Why is the 16 ohm 2425J used insead of it's 8 ohm sibling? Don
I appreciate all the suggestions, guys! The garage idea is a good one, especially as I'm a gearhead and spend quite a bit of time working on my Ford (as in faster then mopar - wink, wink, nod, nod -...
Edgar Winter!!!!!!!!!!!!! About the only guy who can show Clapton and SRV how's it's done! Don
I'm building a lake house and am thinking about how to integrate my hifi system into the living room. The room is 32' x 19' x 7.5'. The stereo will be on one of the 19' walls. One of the 32' wall...
That's some serious iron. Hope you didn't pay by the pound! Gotta love the old tube gear. Don
Gotta love those L100s.... Glad to see you have good taste in speakers. Now, if you'd only reconsider your cars! Don
How about clear silicone. Just a drop or two should work nicely. Don
I use an Ashly XR2001 to tri-amp my system. The Ashly x-over is fantastic. I did have a DBX x-over that was terrible. It was muddy on the sub/mid x-over point.
The low-freqs and hi-freqs are...
Phase Linear - of course. All other brands at that time were for plebs!
During the late 70's a friend had Phase Linear grear driving VOTTs in his appartment. These were the big VOTTs with the...
Cool Beans. These things are taking up way too much storage space! Don
They are SDA 2. They are in nice condition and I do have the interconnect cable. These things are monsters! Would have to do it via UPS. If you're interested we should take this off the forum and...
