I don't think JTS makes scoops (anymore), he has a few of these too as seen on the University of Dub post.

Yes Mykey, That's a v18 1000 loaded in them.
 
As soon as I have time, I'm gonna try one of the Volts in there to hear how it sounds, cause I know you speak highly of them.
 
It's a pity it can't fit into a standard super scoops ain't it.
 
well they must fit into Shorman's because the panel is far back, i had to mod all mine by cutting a circle out of the baffle then replacing a piece behind, quite simple really

Mykey, do you reckon this is a better choice of doing this to cater for deeper drivers, other than deepening the rear chamber slightly, or adding a 2nd baffle to the front of the cab ?
 
Once the scoop box has has been built & it's then realized the driver can't fit, ain't it too late to do it your way ?

Mi borrow it!!! Why, you selling me one of yours ?
 
Come on mate, sell me one ah yours, I'll bring up a Mini scoop or a full one, which ever you prefer, to your front door, fresh out the workshop, you pay the petrol, sorted. Heavy weight-line for bedroom.
We even go check Mr Ultimate, & see if the mini can rumble down his big scoop.
What you saying ?

If your thinking of making a mini scoop or comparing other mini scoops, wouldnt a Looney or 1850 Horn sound better that mini scoops, for the overall size of the cabs, would the Looney or 180 Horn sound better.
What do you guys think ???

Well Champion, don't know if you heard this lot in Notting Hill carnival couple years ago...
 
 
                                                                        +
 
 
There's 20 Looneys there, which were in 2 stacks. It sounded good, but needed more low sub.
 
I'd put my money on 20 Mini's shaking that lot up on Sub-Bass, maybe not high punch bass.
 
Listening to Lord Gellys down the road with 12 scoops (A.S.S I think) sounded more solid.

Not a chance mate.

6 1850's will  get approx lower 40's - 150hz flat, with superb kick.

4 looneys Will get you the above.

4x 186 horns sound lovely, would get you to flat to 45hz,  but not as much kick, and not as much SPL.

4x correctly built/driven mini's with 1850's, V18, Bline 800 would get you thunderous SPL 35-60, but MUST have kick bin. If not crossed less than 70hz, the 80hz & above would overpower all the sub.

So Choose where you need the SPL. Heavy heavy sub + kick bin, or flatter response without kick bin but lower spl.
