Pesmerga Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Would any of you be able to help me out? I am attempting to build a pair of LaSca's from scratch..I have the schematics for them but I cannot figure out for the life of me where your access point would be for the woofer enclosure..My Khorns seem identical in the woofer horn layout, with the exception of the driver focus running through the back of the box..The access panel on the Khorns is along that V-angle in the back, but I plan on not making any grill for the front of the LaSca's...So, the only thing I can think of is having the access panel on the bottom? I have never seen these speakers before, with exception to pictures (usually only showing the front) Could anyone that owns a pair of these give me a hand..IE tips on foresight with the downfaults of them, and the location of the woofer panel...Any information would be greatly appreciated.. BTW, I will post pic's when I'm finished. I plan on doing a multiple stain cabinet...Wish me Luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subegt Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 ...So, the only thing I can think of is having the access panel on the bottom? That is correct. For more details you should ask HDBRbuilder. If you search the forum I'm sure you can find more info about building LaScalas. LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pesmerga Posted January 11, 2003 Author Share Posted January 11, 2003 Heh, Yeah I figured that would be the only logical place for it... As for searching the forums, I have scoured over them for the past three weeks finding any info possible on these speakers..I was kinda mad though, the schematics on them didn't tell me anything about the panel and it was in german as well I plan on grabing my wood tomorrow and having the cabinets done by the start of the week so I was hoping to find a quick answer on this..Thanks.

Lone Palm Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 The access panel for my LaScalas is located on top of the bass cavity. To gain access the sqawker must be removed. They're 1973 models. I looked at a new one the other day and could find no access panel so it must be on the bottom. The salesman didn't have a clue where it was.

SCOOTERDOG Posted January 12, 2003 Share Posted January 12, 2003 Mine are on the bottom (1980) models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted January 13, 2003 Share Posted January 13, 2003 Normally, it's cheaper to buy a used pair than to build your own. New drivers and new squawker horn usually exceed the price of a used pair. Add a pair of braces to the bass horn like the model 525 on hps4000.com.

Pesmerga Posted January 13, 2003 Author Share Posted January 13, 2003 Thanks for the link John. I like those cross braces in the bin..I was originally planning on doubling the thickness of the sidewalls to an Inch and a half, but now I will probably do that.. As far as the building is concerned, I plan on just building the cabinet and crossovers...More or less likely going to try and find an old beat up pair of laSca's around my area and change the components.. BTW, what size is the squawker in them... Is is a 12" or a 21"..Not the driver, but the horn itself..thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
