Finished Stack

Sound System has been up and running for about a month now and still have a lot to learn about the dB-XCA 28 but it’s winter and have no plans on getting it out and about until I have transport anyway so plenty of time to familiarise myself with it, read the manual and understand settings on EQ etc.

I have to give a huge shout out to SpeakerPlans.com Forum Community for Newbies which has been valuable resource and I’ll be eternally grateful for the patience and selflessness the community has shown me giving their knowledge and time! 

Thanks to Conanski, RoadRunnersDust, Lucasdude, KDW32, 4D, Snowflake, DMorison, Bob4, Earplug, CSG and to anyone who took the time to respond! Much appreciated! 

Here are a few shots, as you can see the W Kicks are smaller than the Subs below and 215s above so when I do stack them as one there will be a void. I have made a box to fill the void which I’ll probably get a stencil cut and use as Logo/Lightbox. Unless there is a way of adding another Eminence Omega Pro 15” to the middle? Making it x3 instead of x2? Presume not as it’s unbalanced on the channels unless they can be linked differently and run back to amp?

A couple ideas on that...

1. Remove the kick bin and make it a 3-way, stand the 215's vertical with the PV horn on top. I know this can work because it's how my system is configured.

2.  Rotate the kick bin 90 deg and drop it between the subs, and then put the 215 and horn stack on top of that.

Why did you add this big flare box? The high frequency horns don't need it and I'm not sure it's doing anything useful. In addition to that...  you currently have these horns arranged so they have very narrow horizontal coverage and very wide vertical coverage... which is the opposite of what you want/need for a party event. 

It also can't be any fun lifting that hugh thing up there. 

The horns are in those boxes as I couldn’t find any decent horn boxes (at any price) the flare boxes where a bargain and if I ever change the horns I can just change them back to 12” flare boxes but as they are they just fit in ceiling height, but can be turned Horizontal in rooms with higher ceilings.
