Been hearing some good things about paraflex bins and tops.
Who else, apart from Sinai and Volcano, are running paraflex, in dub n reggae. I heard Volcano at NHC. Edited by BigSoundNorthWest - 07 September 2022 at 11:10am |

So forgetting about sims and plots, how does 1x21" paraflex, compare with a decent 21" Full Scoop, 32hz - 100hz !? Edited by levyte357- - 23 November 2022 at 5:03pm |

Wasn't there a post here on speakerplans from a person that replaced 18" scoops with altcon 15" paraflex loaded with 15ds115 (yes, those exist, that's not a typo!!). He reported very good initial results.
Iirc it was user "noud", in a thread about a top build. EDIT: found it! Edit 2: scoop was apparently fane 18xb loaded.....

Not even comparable to a shutter ply 18" sb with minimal bracing. I wouldnt even use paraflex for pa let alone reggae. Definatly a design that shouldnt have left the work shop imo.

If I was going to move away from scoop based bass, I think I'd rather go bandpass style , kinda like what Kutty is putting out, rather than paraflex...

I think I will build 18/21 double bandpass manifold boxes from the 18sound enclosure designs page - if I get bored of my mini scoops. I like their drivers too!

In my universe, a 1x21 paraflex, would need to "Thanos" a 1x21 Full Scoop, 32hz-90hz, to justify it's existence. |

I have heard a 21" Paraflex a/b with 21" hog , 21" flh and 21" tapped horn all run on same amp , just a listening test ,it was agreed by the 6 people present the paraflex was very impressive over the other cabs , will say it was noted it had a 4r driver but even so in all aspects it suprised us
