NEW FROM AVATAR!

NICE~ I'm wondering if it has a 3-way crossover, or if the 15 and 10 will be run 'full range'~ COOL!:hyper: An Avatar Triad!

When I spoke to him weeks ago, I seem to recall him saying it would be a 3 way cab.

Wish he would use the Alphalite 6 cbmr instead of the 10 :) doh.

I mentioned the "Fearful" also, and suggested he could use a 6" or 8" instead of a 10"

For some reason, he is set on using a 10. Will have to wait and see how it turns out.

I'm guessing he wants to go with speakers he can source from his existing stock or suppliers? Ordering a bunch of 6" or 8" mid drivers and then not having the cab sell well (because it is 'different') will result in a lot of hard-to-move product.

Sucks, but it's a wise business move. I wonder how many orders and how much money LDS has made off of 15/6-style cab builds?
 
The alphalite 6cbmrs are high quality standard drivers that would work well, and are also easy to work with since they're closed backed. Definitely how I'd go.

He could even probably get away with using a standard eminence crossover instead of a much lower custom one.
 
If he were to use a bass 10" and a guitar 15"...now THAT would be an interesting sounding cabinet.

I wish people would buy more 110 cabs...but then the MojoSonics would have to compete with Avatar...so for the sake of a great cab maybe I shouldn't wish for a low priced 110 cab on the market.
