So I'm working on the new boxes, and I thought this also was the good oppertunity to paint the TH-18 cabs differently. I'm planning on spraying the warnex instead of doing it with a roller.
I see a lot of those airles spraygun things, and I was wodering if this would work with warnex. Or that I just buy a compressor with a spraying gun. The goal is to get the nice pro splatter finish.

And another update
The current top cabinets will be replaced with new ones. With larger internal volume, and more port area. Also a beefier low/mid driver (probably MB12N405), high driver probably a ND950 (1.4) or maybe a BMS coax, on a HF950 horn. They will be weighing more, but I hope to keep it under 27 Kg's.

Update: The current set-up is likely to be powered by litemod modules (with DSP ofcourse).
So the current amprack is up for sale.

For the DE800 I think it is wise to use a capacitor to protect it from DC-voltage (if it happens).
Are there any specific types used for this application?

Qsc pl380 powering them 4 Ohm.
3 weeks and then I can use them to their full potential. |

Maybe the only thing I would have done different, is the paint job.
Now I did it with a roller, but spraying gives a more professional finish.

Heyo! First of all LOVE the build!
About to start a build of basically the same boxes -I'm going with the Faital Pro 18HW1070 drivers... Just a set of 2 to start. Overall are you happy with the results? I'm doing this build to replace 2 qsc KW181 as I was not happy with the overall output. I have 2 QSC KW153 for tops now and the 181 just did not keep up. I plan on driving these with a QSC PLD 4.5 running it 2 channels @ 4ohm which will give me my 1600w continuous and a 2400w peak 100hz low pass rolling it off around 36-38 or so. Any advice or input as I venture into this? I already have the drivers and a buddy is going to have the wood cuts done on a CNC machine. http://www.faitalpro.com/en/products/LF_Loudspeakers/product_details/index.php?id=201070138 https://www.qsc.com/live-sound/products/power-amplifiers/pld-series/pld45/ Edited by Russellsoundsolution - 12 January 2018 at 10:24pm |

Yeah, it never cures 100%, so the foam can be easily removed. We dot the foam from behind with superglue for the subs after we glue is with spray77. That keeps it in place for long time.

At the moment I used Bison glue, looks allot like the scotchweld stuff. I applied the same as you said, but still keeps coming lose when I turn it up a little. |
