Here are 2 pics I have resized of one of the speakers and one of the crossovers we ended up using. There are a few more but they need some help.
Mr. Widget is a gracious host and it was a real pleasure to be a part of it with a
great group of people!

I get that from time to time too. I will be looking up an older thread and even though I am registered, I have to type in the info again and then I am allowed access.Originally Posted by Giskard

I got this message
Thats not a nice message to give a fellow forum member....
yggdrasil, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Sorry about that. I guess you haven't been delving into the Project May areas. You will need to send a PM to Don and he will grant you access. It is open to everyone on the forum, but it does require being signed up.
Send Don the note... you have a bit of catching up to do!
BTW: For those that don't want to bother signing up with Don, most of the more salient points are covered in the blog that you can get to by clicking on the Project May button at the top of every forum page... but there is a bit of a time lag.

It was a fun time, but I definitely learned 4 beers is my limit - I'm lucky I made it home!
My first impression was that I thought the speakers had already been EQ'd flat, then I learned it was just the crossovers at work. Impressive! I did agree with others that thought the bass was a little soft, although some really good bass came on in some of the recordings. I didn't stay late enough to hear the work done on the horns...
Anyway, since system pics have been posted, here are some people pics.
The first is Carl and Don C. in back, then SpeakerDave, Widget, and Bo in front.
The next is Samtastic, Infredible, Bo, Carl, and Rob?
And the last is me, after too many beers! ('Sorry, Bo - I was too gone to make your gig that night - 'hope it went well!)
Picture tells a thousand words........
Don and his Band of Merry Men.
I get..the old get em pissed and it will sound great ploy....I knew it.
Too bad Giskard could not be there, that would have beeeen real interesting.

And another three
Enhanced:
Was there any ideas discussed about the industrial design?
Ian
Well the point is he has more experience that the rest of use put together when it comes to playing with and listening to JBL's and I think (with all due respect to The Widget and our friends at the audition) his intuition of the tweaks that have been made so far would be very valuable in finalising the acoustic design.
Perhaps at some stage further down the line Giskard will be able to audition project May
Like so many of us I will never hear the system so... :dont-know

Wheeee!! I had a great time! Widget rox!
Here are my impressions (remember im jus a n00B)
One of the major things we noticed was how immensely different it sounded at various off axis levels (time alignment issue?). When seated the mid was great, but standing it really felt a bit muddied.
I found it interesting that with some recordings the bass was nice and thick and sounded great, but with others it felt very weak.
I'll post my asthetic impressions/thoughts on the other forum when i get access.
Thanks again to Widget!! and it was awesome meeting everyone there!
