good encloser plans for single EVM-15, TL 606 maybe?

Sign in to disble this ad
I've just recently started playing out again after "retiring"in the mid 80's. I'm realizing my old monster double EVM 15L cabinet is way too heavy for my advanced age(56).....and way too big for our little Toyota Yaris.
I'm not playing hi-volume music so I should be able to get by with one EVM 15L,(shouldn't I?).I remember the old TL(?) series as being very popular and relatively compact,I've still got the 12" version of one,my old monitor.
I've got good woodworking skills,and plenty of experience,I've also got plenty of 3/4"baltic birch and plan on using my biscuit joiner for all the joints.
Does anyone have plans or even just measurements for a single 15" TL(?) cabinet,or any other cabinet that is relatively portable that you'd recommend? Thanks very much and have a great day everyone!!!

If you are really looking for something smaller and lighter I would suggest selling the EVM's. Those are still sought after speakers and could fetch some good money. With the advances in cabinet design and the creation of neodynium magnets will save you space, give you more efficient speakers and will weigh less.
Some ideas off the top of my head: you could sell the EVM cabinet all together and build a fEarful cabinet (lord knows there is enough info about them on this forum), or if you really love your 15's you could build a BFM designed Omni or Jack. I believe you can load those speakers into Bill's designs. Either way you would get smaller cabs by splitting up the 15's and if you go decide to go with the Kappalite 15's, you will save even more weight from your back.
