I seriously doubt your amp would go from a 7 to a 5 because of a few bubbles. How about a picture so's we can help.

question, what would be the best material to stuff these with. was just going to use some fiberglass insulation from a remodel but must have thrown it away so if i'm going to buy something may as well be optimum, Randy

The pictures are of the lascala upside down, when the work is done I'll flip them over. Need hole against the bass bin for obvious reasons, need the other opening to screw the addition to the bass bin and to work on the tubes. Will be adjusting them to their final length. Randy

The addition will be sealed both to the bottom of the bass bin and then the original bass bin cover will be installed to the bottom of the addition. Yes they get two 4 inch ports, I'll start them out at 10 inches long and work from there. I have the port tubes but ordered the wrong ones, I wanted the flared ones but got the straight ones, will be ordering the others soon. Until then I'll work with these. I believe the only difference would be in a decrease in port noise. Randy

I don't know if he is the same member but he is going to attemp redoing a Mac C-20 for me also.

Joe if you built a wooden or metal box and inverted it over your contraption you could hide your balls. Randy

You can get caps at Alliedelec.com I like the ASC the best because they are 5% high grade units. Depending on what you choose for caps the raw cost is $25 - $50 for a PAIR of AA networks. I still want to hear an A/B test of Hoveland Music caps versus laboratory grade....----------------
ASC? Yaffman, what does this mean?
-
These are the modified AA's. I know I should replace the old cans, they are probably out of spec's. Any suggestions? Thanks for letting me bore you.Randy
Edit: djk, do you have any recommendations on changing the AA crossover for this mod?

here's a start, taking pictures all the way thru. can you believe it, can't find any 1 1/4 inch drywall screws and i know i have a least a quadrillion somewhere, Randy

Wow and my wife thinks I'm crazy!

Craig do you have the older or newer version of the Blueberry?
-
You are the devil, ain't you, Craig.

UH OH! That means I'll really have to build them, damn I was just kiddin' before. Hey,I'd like to meet you also to thank you in person Craig, you were instrumental in me finishing my MK-II upgrades. Maybe I'll bring some amps just for the heck of it too. I'd damn sure want to hear yours on my speakers, who knows, may end up selling some Mac's.
Probably not tho . Randy -
Who is this mysterious poetry lady?
I plan on making it this year and was wondering if I should bring some Lascalas? I could bring some other items as well but don't know if there is any reason to. Randy

Dennis has made plenty of the mods, and I believe he has done both kinds (underneath box and enclosed top). I won't put words into his mouth.If I were to build a set of LS clones, I would at least make the provision for the enclosed top as I was building them.Marvel----------------
Hey Marvel, glad you kicked in! I don't understand the where or whyfor but am trying it anyway. Haven't had any bad info yet from the forum and it is all reversable. Randy

Yaff, it is supposed to allow the speaker to go lower without losing the qualities of the lascala. Yes, the bottom is open and the ports go to the front. I read about this mod here on the forum. If you do a search you should be able to find some really good info on this mod. It can also be done just using the open area where the squawker and tweeter are. I am trying the bottom version because I think I'd like the upper horns at a higher level more like their cousin, the K-horn.
Craig, I know! I've had the wood cut out for better than six months. Golf season is almost here so I have to get going on these or they'll be waiting for another six months.
Randy Taylor,,,,,the Cincinnati one.

Here goes, finally got off my keister and put these together to try out the mods that help the lascala go a little deeper. Please don't make fun of the woodwork, these are testbed quality!
When I find the right combo then I'll make some nice bottoms. Can't wait, Randy -

David, nice!

Hi David. Nice looking from what I can makeout. Could you send some better pics? What year are these? Randy
Probably not tho

I'd sure rate this as a 7, just my opinion, Randy
