Jim Cornell Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 Cornwalls, With Klipschorns you would need 4 of them, to get the bass,, as a sub ! I dont understand anyone wanting a sub with k-horns, this blows me away! Look for a 24 inch woofer, get a 1000 watt monoblock, and blow out some windows LOL Regards Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 djk, After reading a lot of your older posts, I came up with this idea, to add onto the bottom with even less of a mod to the cabinet. Other than making the LS taller. You already have a hole into the woofer chamber, so why not just add on to it? Marvel ps I even have a folder labeled ! I knew you would be flattered.

DVois Posted May 30, 2003 Author Share Posted May 30, 2003 Tony Boone I did it your way, I went out and found a nice Velodyne F1500R. My home theater is now a pair of LaScala's for fronts - Vert. Cornwalls for Center Channels on their sides - Cornwalls I's for rears with the Velodyne Sub. It all sounds great and the Velodyne rocks the house.

Tony Boone Posted May 30, 2003 Share Posted May 30, 2003 Hey Marvel, Do you have a complete set of those exploded 3d images of the La Scalas? If so would you send them to me? advertiser@hushmail.com Thanks in advance, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted May 31, 2003 Share Posted May 31, 2003 "Where is the detail at AudioAsylum.com on how to modify Lascalla's for better bass ? Its a big site!!" Using the search function comes up with: http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/m.pl?forum=hug&n=4593&highlight=LaScala+vented+djk&r=&session= "You already have a hole into the woofer chamber, so why not just add on to it?" Great drawing Marvel! You have discovered the secret of the "You can 'try it before you buy it', meaning no cabinet mods to try it." statement.

Marvel Posted May 31, 2003 Share Posted May 31, 2003 djk, Without the horn inside the cabinet, how deep should the base be? Could it just be made the same height as the top of the LS? That would give a bit more volume than you spec'd out. I could then adjust my drawing to suit. I think I made it the same height as the top, just for the fun of doing it. Marvel btw, I meant to say I had a folder labeled djk_wisdom. Sooner or later it comes in handy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khorn58 Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 For a killer sub do it your self project look at this! This baby goes down to 18hz and looks like it could keep up with klipschorns or lascalas. or maybe its just a bad Bose pipe dream. Anyway maybe I will build one for fun http://www.passdiy.com/speakers.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for a total net volume of about 4.8 cu ft. I figure the stock back volume is about 2.25 cu ft. Call it an internal height of about 9" (22.5 X 22.5 X 8.70 = 4404 cu in = 2.55 cu ft). Two 4" ID by 10" long ports displace about .15 cu ft so 10" outside is close enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 Again, thanks for the info. We get DSL sometime in the next week or so, which means I can have some drawings done, and put them up on a personal web site without waiting quite so long for the uploads. Right now it is like waiting for Godot. Plus, I haven't used True Space in close to a year, so I'll have to learn it all over.
