My horns i coated are the 401's.
-
Just off the top of my head.
The Band - Up on cripple creek
Stray cats - Stray cat strut.
Queen -Dragon attack
These should give a little kick but not the lowest of lows.
I love the bass guitar on horns, and everything else of course.

You did the opposite of me. I sold my 07 Road King Classic last summer and bought an R1200GSW. My beef with the HD was the seating position. I am accustomed to an upright riding position from dirt bikes and never really liked the backache I got from riding hunkered over on the Harley. On the BMW I ride upright, and love the power! It is one of the quickest bikes I've ridden and the quickest one I've owned.
Don't get me wrong. The Harley was a joy to ride, and was relaxing. I simply couldn't ride it for long or very often as my back had to recover.
Dirt bikes are a blast, i rode every available hour when i was a kid. Once they expanded the O'hare parking lot across Mannheim Rd my riding spot was gone, its now just a paved parking lot.

The 883 is a great starter bike, its just as fast as the 1200 sporty. The gearing is somewhat higher to make up for the lower horsepower & torque difference.
The bikes are dependable until you start tinkering with upgrades & such, then it depends on whats installed and done correctly or not.

I removed my mid assy, bag & taped over the driver so not to muck it up and sprayed a can of quiet coat over the outside of each horn, it did make a difference.

Hardwire is really the way to go if its possible.
Anything wireless is susceptible to interference.
-
To compete with your Cornwall's at higher volumes you're going to need at least one high output 15".
A horn sub would be a good alternative to compliment your mains.

If your amp & wireless project are one together you could get something like this. Link
-
If you're good with tools & woodworking plan on at least a week probably more.
Not a beginners project but doable if you take your time, its worth it.

Anything played on an elevator.

The wider you build it the flatter your response will be.
The smaller the room the more room gain it will have.
No 2 rooms are the same so your results will vary.
Your average room will result in 12dB gain per octave below 30Hz but like i said all rooms can vary & driver position will make a difference also.
The best looking position for your cabinet is not always best spot but like everything else in life there has to be compromises.

The cabinet is tuned to 22Hz if i recall correctly.
Check on Bills websight if you need more information on the subject. Link

Lately i have been listening to:
Godsmack
Jack Johnson
Neil Young
No favorites though, too many bands out there to choose just one.
-
Around $400 depending on cabinet size & driver compliment it can be more or less.
Response is dependant on the room & position in the room.

Keep the LaScala's and add a horn sub. LaScala has a nicer sounding midbass and adding a horn loaded sub to your current speakers will give you the best of both worlds + the ability to play lower frequencies than the K-horn ever dreamed of.
The sound really is seamless.
-
The woofer is where you really need the horn.
Highs and mids benefit from horns too but most just don't have the room or cant afford a big horn, its just a compromise really.

I havent been to Starbigbucks in a long time, last time i was in there i spent $16 on 2 of their fancy coffiees.
Better at home anyways, hot coffee in the winter & iced in the summer.
Like Burger king's slogan, have it your way.

Another happy LaScala owner.
Looks like a nice home for them too.

Never tried Kona coffee, probably don't want to. I may like it and hate to spoil myself.
-
The whole system for $600 is a great price, i paid about that for my 2 Infinity Kappa perfect subs.
Glad things worked out.
-
nor would I want (IMHO) to compromise an all horn system with a couple of non-horn subs for the same reason.

I agree with you here, why mate a distortion box sub with a nice set of horns.
Is that not the reason we use horns in the first place, to remove much of the distortion ?
Seamless transition from woofer to subwoofer is what most of us are after.
That seems a little harsh (distortion box).
Its a fact that direct radiating subs are much higher in distortion than a horn loaded sub.
Put 2 cabinets next to each other using the same driver, one horn loaded & one ported. You will hear the difference.

I have the older style Cuisinart grind & brew (link), its going on 5 years old and still works except for the grinder sounding like a chainsaw but its been like that since new.
Anybody have the newer style grind and brew ?

After shipping costs it comes out to about the same price.
Cables look decent enough though.
-
$19 is a steal.
My longest cable is 25 Ft from my old Dodge van amp rack.

Absolutely, couldn't agree more. I spent every weekend at Great lakes dragway racing whatever i was working on (mostly Olds & Mopar) and if my cars were apart there was always Mom or Dad's car.
Worked great until dad found some time slips in the glovebox, woopsie.
