EV T-18 with void 1200s VERDICT

Don't know him well but I did him a favour once, could try track him down and if he's about maybe you could borrow an X1 or 2 for experiments.. or I'm in dublin with 2 V8-1000 loaded X1s.. other than gigs I don't really have any testing ground though...

bit of an off chance but that guy wouldn't be called Sol would he, if so i think his bro told me he's sold them...

Spot on, exactly what I would say. The V18-1200 is very picky about what it works in, but would definetly work in large reflex with correct tuning.

My scoop plan is a prototype. Drivers that I know will definetly will work in it as is are,

1. V18-1000
2. Bline 800
3. PD1850
3. FANE 18XB

but can only say the V18-1200 "should" work in it, due to enlarged chamber and throat.

Steve, if you sold your V18-1200s on, the V18-1000/Bline 800/PD186 are proven to work in numerous designs.

If you keep them, you will have to experiment with prototypes to get the cabs right.
