Is it true that the V18-1000 you buy from say PAP are slightly different though? Sure I saw comment they were V18-1000C/D (can't remember which.)

I remember Rog saying in a previous post...

V18-1000A has an aluminium coil (and is a special for the Looney).

V18-1000C has a copper coil (and is the one you can buy from PAP).
ALL YOUR BASS ARE BELONG TO US.

I saw a picture of what lurks behind the rear access panel today! Its very easy to tell the difference between the super looney and the original.

@Kazakore: did you buy your looneys from toy town?

Could be. From Lincoln area and I believe half his originally came from you but can't remember which ones (although my split is 5 - 1 types.)

Just finished setting up for the the first gig using the looneys. The setup is totally overkill for a 600 person high school gig, but we had to try our new babies out.

After I finished SMAART, and cranked up the volume, the bass was truly immense, and my ears started popping. Regarding sound quality, I'm very impressed, since they sound good on both house, RnB and disco (i have always loved the "horn" sound).

They are truly a fantastic piece of kit, and next time ill bring som more tops Tongue

I don’t get involved with any of the business side of things, I just do the R&D, but I am still surprised you never mentioned anything about long delays to me during our conversations. If you had I might have been able to help out, although I have to say that building Looney Bins is a real pain in the arse as we don’t make many and have to make parts for them to order, so there is not much I could have done. I’ve never been a fan of making Looney Bins as it undermines the other products we manufacture and does the industry no good whatsoever by selling at such a cheap price. So I think stopping manufacture of the Looney Bin after all current orders have been supplied we be the only way to go.

 

Sorry again and I will speak to the UK to see what has happened with the rest of your order.


like the other successful bins around that are free, I hope plans will be posted on the SPEAKERPLANS SITE, since this bin (looney bin) might be off production.......LOL

hahahaha..........you the man Roger!!!
.....power is nothing without control....
