Low Down Sound Cab Club started!

Sure, why not.

I have LDS 210 & 115 neo cabs. Lightweight, small and great to gig with!

 

112 Ultra-Light B&C coax for me.... about 27 pounds or so, and about as small as you can make a two-way 112 (coax and rear ported). Very nice sounding cab, and the spray on coating and tilt back stand are GREAT.

 

LDS: rules!

I have a 2x12+2x6; 4x8+2" compression driver, and 2x8+5" mid driver...those two make a kick butt lil mini-stack that really puts out...

2x12:



2x8+5


I'll try to take some better snaps of the 2x8...and post something of the 4x8 later...
I'm taking the "6x8 stack" out to work tonight...

 

Well, Where do I sign up? My UL 210 and UL 212 with B & C drivers are great and were almost half the cost of the Epiphani's at the time. I do miss the Sadowsky NYC that is in the picture though.

 

Sweet! I just updated my signature. I think I'm heading down to LDS today to see if Don has any more cabs in stock.

 

Don built me a neo 310 with B and C drivers that I love. It has the spray coating. Use for most gigs with my Aggie AG500- sweet !

 

Neo 3-way 3x8 (plus mid and tweet) that I bought from Bowlus a while back. It's sweet! I wouldn't use it for heavy music, but for jazz and anything that calls for articulate voicing and sweet tone, this cab couldn't be better IMO!

I do intend to have Don make me another cab at some point, although TBH I got very frustrated with him when I wanted a custom subwoofer cab- he just didn't get it, and no matter how I tried to explain my needs/wishes to him in different ways, he just kept trying to sell me one cab that did not meet those needs. I would tell him "no that's not it, I need it to be different in this way and that way", and he'd say "yeah this cab is great, everyone likes it, I'll build one for you" I gave up after a while, and I've had some discussion with other cab builders here where they said "Yeah Don does great work in general but he doesn't understand subwoofer physics at all".

Again though I will be calling him for other speaker needs, because I really do like the one I've got.

 

LDS 610 owner here. Neo speakers, tilt back, line-x, 75lbs



Sounds great played with the Traynor and even better with the SVT

 

Mmmmm...

Cold Land Shark...

Got another one?

 

I'll post a pic later (new computer) but I have a 1x12" high-x w/5" cab that makes my Markbass mini CMD121P into a monster rig!

Johno!

 

Neo speakers and birch plywood. I can carry it with one hand by the side mounted handles.

They go pretty fast, haha.

 

Don has quote me on a 810 Neo that he specs at 80 lbs.

That's amazing.

TD

 

That one's great! What's the impedence?

KO

 

8ohms. Not much reason to get a 4ohm 112 IMO... most heads at 8ohms put out plenty of power to drive a small, single speaker cab to 'full volume'.

It's a great sounding little box, and the B&C tweeter is beautiful sounding.

I had this one tuned a touch low, so it's not as loud as some other 112's (i.e., the lower tuning results in a lower SPL, at least as typically measured at 1K). I did this since this is more of a 'practice/rehearsal' cab for me, so I wanted 'big cab tone' in a little box, knowing I wouldn't need massive punch or volume.

The good news with Don's cabs is you can specify the tuning and 'general tone profile', since they are 100% custom. The bad news is, it can be a bit hit and miss. I've played some of Don's cabs that were among the best cabs I've heard (Shelly's, Burk's, etc.) and others that somewhat 'miss the mark'.

 

I don't see the tweet; is it under the nameplate?

 

Coax. No tweet.

 

ahhhh; noted, thx
