   Hey all.
would I need to make significant changes to the 102 to make it a 101? I want two build two separate single 10" horn loaded boxes. Would it be a big deal to essentially squash the cab height down keeping everything else the same?
(leave side flairs exactly as is, leave the bottom shelf exactly as is, just shorten the cab so the top shelf sits exactly mirror opposite the bottom shelf on a single 10).
Thanks all.
Jeremy

	in short yes, but id make sure that the mouth size [ie the area at the front of the horn] is exactly half that of the mt102 its a tiny bit more complex than that, but ive seen similar things done with 12" versions etc. by doing this you may lower the lower x-over point a tiny bit [say 18 up to 190 hz, 2 horns will couiple a little, maybey not, im just being cautius] but in essence what you are doing, is very much doable, put your plans onto paper, and post em up here, and a few peeps will proly throw a cursory glance over them and tell you if it will work....
	me so horny me love you long throw horn loaded for her pleasure
