AudioKinesis Cabs Part VI...

[DukeLeJeune]

One of the cabs will fit in the trunk, but I could not get the lid down to latch.

Dangit!

The metal corners were an attempt to skinny-up the cab as much as possible, as the ridged plastic corners stick out a bit. Figured I'd take my best shot at getting them to fit in the trunk. Bummer.

Well I have not taken a picture of that Duke.. but I will so that you all can see what I am talking about..

Shave off a few millimeters of the cabs corners/edges and take mat out of trunk?

 

[99Z3]

No, Bimmer, as in bigger. . .

Yes, I do need a bigger bimmer!

 

[99Z3]

LOL.. yeah.. I might be poor, broke and have to pay annual taxes.. but I am not a complete redneck!

I'm a complete redneck. This is what we call a glove box.

Nice pics, nice car, nice cab. . . Not so nice "spare" tire? Maybe gain a little space by losing the spare, which if the space saver variety, is notorious for being flat when needed, anyway. Replace spare with electric compressor/tire repair kit (Slime), and road service option in auto insurance. Many cars these days do not even come with a spare (I have one).

The spare tire goes under the car, not in the trunk..

I'm a complete redneck, because I am in the doghouse all the time! .

There, I fixed it for you! <smiles>

Some folks would call this kind of car, a day car.. for me it is an everyday car! For the moment it is.

Well, you have managed to make the hathor look huge.

Well for some, perception is everything! Personally, I would hope with the H1203's that "size doesn't matter"!

I think your choice of vehicle has proven you wrong...

Um, this isn't a thread about "Big Bottom Cabinets".. or otherwise know as "BBC"!

Well I will say this, if I had been back to playing bass when I bought this car.. I probably wouldn't have bought it.. but I wasn't. The great thing about the advancements in equipment is that for most of us players, you don't need to be driving a whale in order have a fantastic sound at the gig!

Maybe put it in the passenger seat for the time being

PETA wouldn't think that is funny..., but I do!

I took the one cab with me to a local mom and pop music store.. tried the GK MB 500 amp through it.. sounded good.. The guys at the store thought it sounded really good too! I was going to also try a MB 800 Fusion amp, but the amp would not produce any sound.. we tried everything short of opening it up.. they didn't want to do that. So I have no idea as to how much better it would have sound with that amp.. All the testing that I did do was with the port plug removed. I really liked the tone with it out of the cab. I guess I am not much for the sealed sound except from seals! Did this testing seal the deal for me with the cab.. umm yes it did help.. but now I will have to see what the two of them would sound like..

Yeah, I believe that People Eating Tasty Animals wouldn't appreciate that much at all! I have never tried horse.. Moose and Elk would be another story though!
