I was lucky enough to see Richard Thompson in October here in Toronto were he did a solo acoustic show that was amazing!!! The last time I saw him was about 6 years or so ago, also a solo show, but electric. He mostly played that pastel green... I think Fender. Unbelievable player, plugged in or acoustic.

I am running the Peaveys as 2-way with the K402, the K510s in the centre top hat are not being used right now. The F20 is is to the left of where this pic was taken. For the F20, I have the XLS1500 being feed from the Wyred 4 Sound preamp's extra XLR output, using the Crown's Xover, not the Xilica. I am guessing the best way would be to use one of the remaining open XP4080 outputs to run the sub amp(s) You may notice, on top of the HIP, you will see a Crown D75A. I have a 2nd one sitting on the shelf, but I doubt these 2 would have enough power to drive the 4 LAB12 subs? Could probably pick up a 2nd XLR1500 for a couple hundred bucks on FeaBay.

Hey Claude, Not sure how well you remember my basement room, but at 15'x20' I think I could probably shoehorn four of the designs you suggest into the room. With my current F20, I have it running with a Crown XLS1500 bridged and crossover'd around 60 along side my FH1s / K402s. The Peavey / 402s are xover'd via my Xilica XP4080, thanks to Chris A's guidance and setup. What do you think might be the best way to Xover and power 4 of these subs in my room?

My memory is not what it should be, sucks getting old, but was the Spud and or Super Spud built around the LAB12 driver? I did a google search, but I did not come up with plans for either of those.

Thanks guys for the suggestions so far! I agree that the Tuba 60(s) would be killer subs, but the size of these B#ggers might be an issue for my room. And my room is in the basement, which is a chore to lug big boxes down into. My F20 was a struggle and then my Jub clones were a real B!t@h to get up and down the stairs, even with four guys! Claude's plans look to be much more manageable to build and transport to the basement. The multiple sub technique is also what Wayne Parham endorses, hence why I original thought of going with 4 of his 3Pi subs.

Yesterday I came across 4 used Eminence LAB 12 drivers that I ended up getting. It's not that I needed them but at $400cnd for the quad, I figured, what the hey. I first thought I might build 4 of Wayne Parham's 3Pi subs... they are a 20"x20"x20" box with a 4" round by 16" long port. Then I did a little reading on the LAB12 and it seems they might be well suited to a horn loaded cabinet. I already have one F20 sub and two Exodus Anarchy 6.5" 25hz tapped horn subs, that really work nicely, so I do understand what horn sub base is all about. Anybody with any experience with the LAB12s... Calling Carl, Claude, Jason ?

Not last night, although Strasburg probably could have pitch a complete game victory.

I can say the most dramatic "mod" that I have ever done to my HiFi system(s) has been to treat my room. Better than any tube, cable, amp... maybe with the exception of getting K402 horns. 😎 twice 😫 My panels are DIY, a bundle or two of Corning, several yards of Guilford of Maine and a little wood to frame everything and a way you go. When I sent Chris the first (of many, and counting) sweeps from my room, he immediately knew my room was well treated based on how the REW sweeps measured. Well worth the effort!

Ya buddy, I figured I was playing to a small crowd there... probably just you. 😮
