I Picked up my 21" mini scoops from Joe yesterday and I must say I am well impressed with the build.. Real solid construction and still relatively light. Paint and finish looks great as well. I cant wait to put some power through them.. My PD2150 drivers are in, so tomorrow I will give them a good test with my Preamp and a 3K amp.

Pretty close to a reflex. That mouth is almost a port.

I forgot about you. I have the 21" in the back of the van. Been over to Becton a few times to HSS too. If you're not 100% about the new ones, ill drop it off to you for a play around.
 
So did you buy these without hearing them?

i really hope you like them but that seems like an awfully small cab for a monster driver to preform its best in

will you be bridging a 3kwrms amp into each scoop?

please keep us updated on your testing and thoughts

if you dont like the sound remember to run the pd2150s in to loosen them up

if the sound is still not to your liking try wadding the chamber fully

also try moving them around wit those handles but from experience i like the handles right of the edge of the mouth and the back corner as this makes it easier to go up/down stairs

looking good though

I here you Mykey, But I remember you stating that the PD2150 wasn't the ideal driver in your 21" minis. I think you stated it was made for the PD 21" neo version.

ppl have told me in the past the the pd2150 and pd2151 are very similar

is that incorrect?

They are new recones so I will run them in.. I will just run each scoop a side on the amp.
