Going well so far, cut all the panels with festool circular saw and guide rail (after a recomendation i got off someone on here). I've used mdf for this one as i want to see how they sound before i build more. Gonna be used on top of 10 21" scoops, i'm hoping the x-tro's can produce enough kick on top of the scoops.

Thanks. Yeah you can say that again, now all i have to do is save for the drivers, i've got some 15" beyma's but i don't know a. how they'll sound b. if they'll fit in the x-tro. How do you make the pics in posts bigger? every time i post pics they come out as postage stamps and display the size below.

I can sell you 2 brand new 18sounds for £300, which is £180 off list price. Boxed and unused.

A few more pics,
Now all i need is the drivers and the mid horn, unfortunatly gotta wait till the 16th of may for the drivers bit annoying but hey. Still haven't decided how to wire them yet, was thinking of using an 8 - pole speakon and using the 2 spare pins to feed the subs, that means only having to run 1 cable to each stack.

NL8 is the way forward, would be a disaster to get hf and lf mixed up!

yeah i was building this one on the cheap and had a couple of sheets of 18mm mdf laying around so thought i'd use that. Makes it quite heavy, but this ones just a test to see how good they sound. Can't wait to get the mid-horn and drivers for it. The bass section sounds ok, gave it a test earlier, i've got it loaded with delta pro's, gonna try some beyma's in it when i can be arsed to pull all my speakers out of the shed. Anybody got any news on the XT8's? are they available yet?

Theres a pic of some omega pros in there.

Did you test them?

Really interested to know if they sound good as I have four omega pros 15s and want to build some good horn loaded cabs for strong kick bass.
