Yes, I agree about Spackle. I use wood filler. You might want to sand the wood filler pretty well and maybe a light coat of primer. Un- sanded wood filler can get mighty slick. PL adhesive gets very slick as well.

The Recex screws I have, will go all the way through the front mounted speaker's holes and stick out about 1/2" into the inside of the cab. Will this be less strong? Should the screw just be long enough to into the baffle board or is all the way through, OK ???

I think Dura-Tex recommends using "Spackle" for a filler.

No matter what they use onstage, most have a DI to the board as well. Seems like most of the backline I see at concerts, or on T.V. seem to be SVT's. I'll have to start looking for Hartke's.

What IF you used TWO different heads with mis matched cabs? Would that negate some of the problems with mixing driver sizes?? So really just two, totally different amps running at the same time.

I haven't built a closure for the center port yet---maybe I won't need it--haha! I have a 3015 ready to pop in there.

Here is what I have so far.....I have been working on this thing just every now and then...The first one is how far I have gotten and the second one shows the texture of the Dura-Tex. So Far, I am really digging the Dura-Tex, I will probably use it for everything in the future and not mess...

Ok Thanks! I'm on it first thing in the morning!!

Thank you sir! Maybe just that sheet style from a fabric store?

1. Do I need Poly-Fil? 2. How much? 3. Glue or staple? Thanks in advance!!!

Everyone has heard of Tom Sawyer yet no one has heard of "Ben".....

Detuned cab's are in the common vernacular and have been around for years in guitar cabs--usually running a 4x12...with only 2 12's. Makes it sound like an open back cab...works for a guitar amp.:bassist:

:oIt was the nuts and split washers on the Terminals rattling exactly!! Good Grief ..this is a new low in stupidity...even for me.....but I am glad I don't have to send it back...thank you all for the help!!!!!!!:o

I'm going to shake it , just to be sure, but if it rattles I'm going to send it in, before even trying to install it. Thanks everyone for the responses. I was pretty sure, I've never heard a speaker rattle, when brand new. Thanks! jimo

The speaker looked ok, but when I move it, something is moving around in there. That is not normal, right?
