Impressed with the response would be an understatement Chaka Kahn is shaking my Arse as I type. I will get a pic from the side and back though there isnt much to see I have been using H frame OB for several years now and love the sound. I am very interesting in upgrading my Eminence 15" drivers for Audio Nirvana. I actually just ordered an Audio Nirvana Alnico 8" driver to test in my Oris horns. I have always been keeping an eye out for a better OB 15" driver. I just LOVE the sound of the open baffle. I did quite a bit of experimenting several years ago with various OB designs. I found the actual sound and measured performance to be excellent with the H frame. What drivers do you have above the H frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested in how you set everything up. No Thread I am to lazy to do that nicely and to impatient................ No magic here just straight on easy set up, The top baffle is mdf 19 inches wide X 26 inches tall, 15 inch an is centered on baffle and height was set so center of driver is 36 inches off the floor. Scrap pieces made the T and the 45 degree braces on the back Titebond Glue and finish nails is all that is holding things together. The H Frame is 5 pieces of wood 1 @ 17.5 by 17.5 inches with a 14 inch hole centered for the driver, 2 boards at 19 inches by 19 inches (top and bottom) 2 Boards at 17.5 by 19 inches for the sides. I offset the baffle by 1 inch to the front to make sure the rear of the driver did not stick out Electronics are easier yet, source to pre with 2 sets of output 1 output to the VRD's which are connected straight to the top AN Drivers, 2nd output is connected to a crown XLS 1002 which has the low Pass set at 100 HZ, both gain controls on the crown are set to max 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emile Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 OK; too many amps and speakers in my stereo room ... so got a cheap Russound 2 amp / 4 speaker switcher off FleaBay. Had one previously, but of course gave that one away when I switched to one tube amp and one set of speakers. Coming from Canada ... actually reasonably priced ... Haha; usually those Canadians want way too much for for their stuff (Same with the Japanese ) Cheers, Emile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But would not want to use those inside a house with innocents about. The Judge can use shotgun 410 shells the odds of going through a wall are greatly reduced. the odds of hitting ones target are greatly improved 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USNRET Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I had a need for more magazines so I ordered one 12 pack and DD sent one magazine. I called and then they incorrectly sent two 12 packs. I called and they told me to keep them. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
