    I heard Marseilles about a year ago on a local FM radio station for first time since I was in high school in the early 80s. I just picked up Face to Face album on ebay for $10. I bet they were awesome live!


    You bet they were awesome live 🤘

    But why would you need to saw the La Scala in half? You just need to remove the bottom and then place that base with bass ports on the bottom, right? As I understand it, this is a mod that can easily be reversed.

    Yes, you are right. 



    Just like this on my La Scala’s 

    Note that the crossovers have been updated since this photo was taken 


    If interested in the massive undertaking to build this crossover go to the thread on the link

    Bought me a box of french cigars

    Bought me a black beret

    Get my french from a girl next door

    Teaching me night and day

    Got me thinking 'bout the south of France

    Vis-a-vis vous

    Pack my suitcase, take a chance

    Got nothing to lose

     

    Gimme the sound of the rolling dice

    Gimme a whiskey, don't think twice

    Deal me the card that takes my blues away

    Take me away to Marseilles

     

    Fast train, jet plane, money to burn

    Don't ask no reasons why

    Drinkin' champagne, playin' cool

    Don't even have to try

     

    Gimme the sound of the rolling dice

    Gimme a whiskey, don't think twice

    Deal me the card that takes my blues away

    Take me away to Marseilles

    Albert Productions

    Ha, that's one of the drawings I made and posted before folks shortened the port lengths.


    ‘You did a great job on the drawing 

    I just added the measurement's for others to follow, but I did a few more internal modifications to make them better to my personal preference 

    By the way my LS with the bass reflex mod still rock 🤘

    Foam

    Both versions of the LS benefit from a 2' x 2' x 1" piece of foam behind the woofer. It really smooths out things above 100hz.


    I had a similar modification but with the bass reflex box attached ( noting that I did not read the above information prior to my idea ) 

    Just tinkering with different aerodynamic ideas and I ended up using a cone made of styrofoam and glued it to the magnet of the bass driver 

     

    This may or may not work on a standard LS and as noted it’s in place in conjunction with the bass reflex box

    Heinz,

    Yes, the simple way is to make a box about 10 inches tall with ports.

     

    Four in. diameter x 7 inches seems to be the most popular

     

     

    Are you referring to the bass reflex port? 
    This is the configuration and measurements that I posted of the bass reflex unit on my LS

    I forgot to mention that he was also an audiophile and loved listening to music (photo added above ) 

    He liked mostly softer prog tracks and his favourite band was Pink Floyd

    Just in case you have any doubts about my love of Rush. This was a Christmas gift to my Wife. Meet Tucker, the best dog that I have ever known. An American Bulldog through and through. He was 14 and a half years old when he went on to eternity. The Garden says it all. 


    Our Irish Terrier also went to heaven a couple of months ago at 15yo and he was the best dog we had in 40 years 

    We loved him so much, so we had mim cremated to still be with us
