Hi,
Im a new member on this forum but I have been visiting it for a while now. I specialise in purchasing and tendering/contract negotiation. I am looking to have a quantity of 1850 horns built by a local cabinet makers, I personaly require 4 units and in order to reduce unit commission and take advantage of quantity discount I am looking to offer you guys the opportunity to buy cabs through me. I am offering a fully loaded and specced cabinet, the unit will come on 5" proffesional tour grade castors, will have either cut and routered or metal bar handles depending on general prefference and will have a twin speakon NL4 connector plate on the access hatch. I will offer grills but at an additional cost that will be negotiated with each party individualy depending on requirments. The cabs will be loaded with either Void Acoustics V18-1000 or PD 1850 units depending on individual preference (as a guide the PD loaded cabs will incurr a £70 premium over the Void loaded cabs). The company I am using specialises in cabinetry and has almost 100 specialists (cabinet makers etc) working for them at their head office in Swindon, Wiltshire. I am awaiting a costing on 10, 20, and 50 cabinets as a single production run. As soon as I get these prices I will post then on here and will begin taking orders should any of you be interested. **Just to let you all know I am attempting to contact Rog in order to agree a royalty per cab with him. This will of course effect the final price of the units and I will explain further at a later date (when I post prices!) Regards Damian |

P.S. I may also look at doing this again in the future on other designs. If you are interested in having any design made up let me know and if enough interest developes for a design I will cost it and move forward from there. Regards Damian |

i think maybe alot of people would be sceptical and rather buy the loony bins from Pro audio parts, but good luck

Glad you've thought of that. Seems some other recent posters have neglected that element when offering to build cabs for profit |

good idea but i WOULD definitely buy the looney bin even if it worked out £100 more expensive. The red epoxy finish is worth that alone!!!

as echoed above, don't mean to wee on your chips but it's already being done. Are you aware of the Looney bin?
I thought i'd post a link to make it easy. |

i think though that if your gonna make 20 to 50 cabds you should def square things with rog first or is you cant get in touch with him maybe donate a certain percentage to charity.... only seems fair to me.

If I am unable to get hold og Rog I will probably add £20 to the cost of each cab and set this aside for a couple of months just to make sure I have given Rog plenty of time to respond. After this time I will donate it to the Prospect Hospice in Swindon and post a scan of the receipt on here. Regards Damian |
