That seems to be a pretty fair price, since it'd cost me $50 to do it myself, then probably $75 to get it done right.

I took the speaker out today, and it definately has something wrong with it. Before I send it away to get reconed, I wanna make sure I know what is wrong with it first. When I look at the speaker, there is no tears or any cosmetic damage. But when I tested it a little bit of sound would...

Lesson learned, now on to the 1515/66 that I'm not gonna let anyone ever use, or even touch. I've learned that lettin people borrow stuff gets expensive. I should have been there to stop the madness of eq'ing all bass instead of doin whatever I was doin.

I went to the bathroom and he cranked the volume, clipping the bridged crown xls 1500, so either too much power, or not enough clean power. I'm thinkin it was from pushing the amp too hard. There was a lot of beer involved too, that might have been step 1 in the process of breaking equipment.

Unfortinatly I will be starting to get the parts ready for a 1515/66, after lending my 15/6 to another player, with awful results. Will be buying a new 3015lf and sending the other one to get reconed, unless I find out that I can do it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. But with the...

I know this topic has been covered probably over 1000 times, but I should have listened to the horror stories about lending gear with people. Last night I lent my fEarful 15/6 to another bass player, and needless to say, awful idea. Looks like I'm in the market to get the 15 reconed, buying...

I didn't make the box, I found a picture of it on another thread. I plan to build something like this, but I'm gonna use only speakons, and a plastic box. But it does look like there are rubber spacers in front of the 1/4'' jacks.

Last night we decided to go to an open mic night to audition for a gig at a bar about 20 miles away from where we live. We get over there early, have a few beers and wait for the guy who is runnin it to get there. Once there we decide to start draggin everything in to find out that our drummer...

You have a couple of options, you could either go to www.greatcables.us, and have them make you one. Or you could go to Redco Audio - Redco Audio Home Page and get some bulk speaker cable, a speakon end, and a couple of 1/4 ends, and make your own. Or you could build a parallel box and...

I seen a band the other night start off a song, "What has 9 arms and sucks?" Then they broke into a Def Leppard song.

Some places, not all. [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

If you were to buy another cable, make sure you check the speakon connectors to make sure they are 4 pole connectors, not all of them are. The last few cables that I have gotten at guitar center have only been 2 pole speakons, which is ok, as long as you don't want to modify them. I've made...

Handle placements are awsome... I even messed up and had marked and cut the handles so they were backwards, which would be no problem if I had cut all the way through the wood, but I made a template to route out the necessary depth and size of the spring loaded handle to avoid air leaks. But...

Next to selling one of my kidneys for some extra cash, these pebbles have been one of the best decisions I've ever made. My home theater has never sounded better. :ninja:

I just ordered a cable from this website. Speaker Cables You can pretty much order the cable anyway that you want it.

After reading over the manual to my Crown XLS1500, I kinda feel like a dummy. At my last gig I thought I was running my amp in the bridged mode, but it turns out it was only sending 300 watts to my 15/6, which by the way was plenty of volume. I used a regular speaker cable, not one set up for...

I just checked the cables that I bought at GC, and all 3 of them are all only 2 pole speakons. I assumed when buying the cable, that they would have been 4 pole since most of the older cables that I bought there were.

Sundogue, It's been a few weeks since I put mine together, but the boards are ~4"x6"... There's plenty of room to istall them on the shelf. I went through and hot glued the mid coil, the capacitors, after I installed and tested, because they were getting a little vibration. Also don't...

Sundogue, these are the instructions that Leland sent me, when I e-mailed him for help. Amp + goes to in + on both boards. W+ on the board with the big iron coil goes to the woofer. W+ on the other board goes to the midrange -. Amp - goes to in - on both boards. W- on the board with the...

Zooberwerx, where did you get that panel from?

Fixed it... The wiring directions Bartolini give for soldering to the blend pot are wrong. All is well now. Had the pickups backwards.

I just installed a set of Bartolini P/J pickups with the 8SU for the P and a 9J-L1 for the J, and the J pickup is way hotter of a signal. I was wondering if this is normal. Using the P pickup, a deep sound can be EQ'd, but if you were to roll the knob the the Jazz pickup, the volume difference...

I'm also the soundman in our band. I was the one who bought the mixers, we use an unpowered for FOH, and a powered for the monitors, so I feel most comfortable running them. Also, I have done the most research on setting up gain structures and speaker placement. Luckily we have a few people...

I tried to use round grills on my 15/6, the 15" fit perfect, but the 6 was too big, so it couldn't be used, since the two speakers were aligned so close. I'm not sure if it was an measuring error, or an error when ordering parts. But I decided after seeing the way the round grills looked, I...

I paid $41 for my birch for the 15/6, and $21 for the Auraco for the rack case I'm building... I had to take about 3 sheets of the Auraco out before I found one that didn't have huge voids, but after those sheets, they all looked to be void free. Also bought both 4x8 sheets at Menards.

I just got done takin my 15/6 for a test run, and all I can say is wow. Before I was playing through a Carvin V210t and an old Fender BXR 15 cabinet that had the electronics ripped out, and now, I'm kickin myself for not building a 15/6 earlier. Took a little while to dial in the tone I like...

Once again thanks for the info... Should be painted and wired today... Testing tomorrow.

Sounds good... 14 awg it is... Maybe I'll use the 10 gauge to make a bi-amp cable for the other jack, instead of wiring it up in parallel.

Don't we all.

For wiring up my 15/6, I have some old 10 gauge speaker wire just sitting around. I feel like this is overkill, would I be right in thinking this? I also have some 14 gauge sitting around and feel that this would be enough, since the wires will be so short. If someone could help me out on...

Thanks for the input BurningSkies... Will do.

For the handles on the box I built, I just made a jig, and only went as deep as the handles needed to go, basically trying to prevent any air leaks. I'm using the spring loaded handles btw. Does anyone forsee this being a problem? There is about one ply thick left, and I plan to silicone the...

I was under the impression that using gasket tape on the 3015lf was a good idea, even though there is a gasket already in place, but I could be mistaken. If anyone could let me know for sure what is the best way to go about mounting that, it be greatly appreciated.

I figured that I needed some sort of gasket... Thanks for the help Foz.

How important is using gasket tape on the mid speaker... I kind of had a brain fart when ordering that stuff, and only ordered enough for the 3015lf... If it's essential, what are some alternatives that can be bought at a place like autozone, wal-mart, or menards?

Finally got into my buddy's wood shop tonight. All cut out, and only the bracing the the back panel left to put together. Should have it all put together tomorrow, as well as the 3015lf broke in. Hopefully have it painted up and ready to go for the next gig on Saturday. Once again, thanks...

I see where both Walker and Johndough are coming from... With the band I play with, most rooms we play don't exactly need a whole lot of drum reinforcement, we play mostly small towns in central Illinois, where we could honestly get by without any drum mics, but you know how drummer's can get...

Will do.

Does anyone else use a speaker wired as a mic for their kick drum when playing live? Ours is attached to our drummer rack to help with set up time. As a band we like the sound of the speaker mic better than the Audix mike that came with the drum mic kit. Also, I haven't seen any other band...

I can't wait to start building my 15/6 on Sunday... I recieved everything I need to build it today from Leland... I got a good feeling about this cab.
