One other issue that may impact the soundwave timing is slow lumbering bass
If one is to use an active subwoofer that subwoofer should have high sensitivity - let’s say over 95db

You are welcome Paul.
After that the only thing to follow it with is the Blue or maybe the Red album. Had the red in the car for three replays a couple weeks ago Thela Hun Gingeet....Thela Hun Gingeet
so it's the Blue one next!
Red is a great album
Mike @dirtmudd also loves it ( think it is his favourite)

@Full RangeHow's that plinth build coming along Paul?
On hold at the moment due to work and other stuff happening at this time of year

I personally prefer accuracy and balanced bass
But that could also be due to the music style I listen to - eg Prog , Jazz, classical , 70s 80s rock
And the bass bin has plenty of bass for me
If one prefers modern music that has copious amounts of low bass, then the bass bin won’t be enough
Then I agree that an active sub would be preferable

Do you have the measurements for this piece?
I see you are a new member and welcome to the Klipsch community
This information was posted on the previous page
But I will repost it again just for you 😎
However and please NOTE - the outside measurements of the bass extension need to coincide with the bass / dog box of your speakers
I have measured the Bass extension cabinet of my La Scalas that were built by the Original Poster - @sootshe
Edit
The bass drivers in this build are Crites
Some people prefer the tube length to be 7” to 7.5” when using the original klipsch bass drivers

I finally have my TT set up MOSTLY, now I need a precise way to align the cartridge, Table came with a paper ruler type 2 point protractor but that does not set a precise arm length any suggestions other than Dr Fiekart I simply dont have 250 to spend on 1........................
I use a mirror protractor that I got from EBay
But that is for a tangential arm

A quick brief
The timber outside the cover area will be cut away and the inside will be routed to sink the turntable flush
It will match the dimensions of the plinth frame underneath
Measurements are
Inside - 400 mm x 310 mm
Outside - 464 mm x 374mm
*********
Originaly I was thinking to cut away everything outside the cover
However it does look good to have that offset reverse L on the right side
So I have decided to have a 33 mm ( about 1.5” ) up to 40 mm offset border
I can achieve this by cutting the rectangle plinth frame on the wide flat side
The feet are round alloy with an O ring embedded into the base and they will screw into the underframe

Are you planning to stain or oil...?
I would use the scrap pieces..
And experiment... With light and dark
Stain...
I will be using the same oil stain as the Garrard 401 plinth
The penetrating wood oil is called Cutek

I have redesigned the plinth to be unique and possibly a one of a kind
Since my last post I had the idea germinate in my minds eye and have visited my local boutique timber merchant looking for a slab offcut
Well yesterday I found a piece of laminated Tasmanian Oak just the right size, and I am just preparing the measurements and templates for outer cuts and the cutout for the turntable
Also decided that the cuts will be done at a local CNC shop for accuracy
The idea is to
1 Have a table top surface for the turntable to sit flush with
2 A plinth frame will be attached on the underside - Same as a 19mm standard plinth but thicker @32mm
3 All the standard bracing as per original will be made to suit
4 The TT cutout of the table top will be reused as a base plate
5 Add a different refurbished cover from the past as it suits to perfection. This cover has a darker tint that blends better overall with the TT and is a little larger
I have photos of the new design idea
This is the slab with the frame / plinth timber I will be using behind
The frame to the right is an old plinth frame that was damaged but used as an illustration
The templates are made
Outer for the overall top & Inner for the turntable cutout
The rear view to what it will look like all around with the frame in place
The cover with the darker tint I intend using
And a photo with flash takes the tint away 😃
I dont have a timeline as Christmas is approaching and I have some side projects to complete first
HOWEVER
I can also use the same technique as above and turn the plank longways
Overlap the current 19mm think plinth / frame by up to 10mm to give an overall 3D effect, and better timber end grain matching
Then use the original Thorens cover ( as the cover above overlaps in this rotation)
What say you on the best orientation option ?

I am playing a CD of Rush 2112
Just to keep my brain working while I plan a new but unique one of a kind plinth and cover for the Thorens TD147 ( Will post update on that thread )
Yes this release is good to project manage some free flowing ideas 💡
Artist - Rush
Title - 2112

Mike this is my version with Red cover
It indicates that it’s unofficial on the info so I have deduced from the info that it’s a bootleg
