We use inches here. I grabbed the closest tape measure. If anyone wants to convert the measurements to mm, they can use one of those beautiful tapes and figure it out. Thumbs Up No one on here posts plans in inches to make my life any easier!

Does the JBL scoop actually only have that one brace with the number 8 or are there more?

About tape measures: there are some beautiful ones that have inch as well as cm/mm on there at the same time. Smile

I thought they closed down completely. They had a big going out of business sale like ten years ago. Selling everything CHEAP.

Cool, had horrible feeling you were embarking on journey with pencil behind your ear, and ordering pallets of timber.

Off topic.  I've put insted of polyester stuff,  the 3cm foam pyramids in the chamber and the deep bass is gone. So.. this white polyester stuff work the best. 
 
Edit: Just to mentioned.

@ HM-I thought they looked like jbl copies too.
@ Lev- Didn't really pay much for these scoops, not trying to start a sound with these cabs or anything. I have 8 servo BT7's,& 16 doubles BR cabs for my low end. I'm giving 4 away and will probably use 8 for center fill for dancehall jiggy jiggy parties. I'm afraid tape measures over here have inches, I have to convert everything on this site from mm to inches, now the tables have turned!
I just thought I would share what info I have gathered on these cabs for the speakerplans massive dem.

To be honest, I wouldn't say the rev eng plan of the AST plan is looking good, looks a disaster on paper hence poor response.


@Reality sound:

Doubt it's possible to make those cabs sound like real scoops, given existing build.

If you decide to sell them, and build something else, can PM you some mods to another plan that is known to work. Wink

Also:Suggestionto make life easier, work in millimeters. Wink
