Magic stuff! Especially the way you have done the recessed handles. How many sheets of ply have you used for the pair? Keep the pics coming! |

If using a CNC you need just over 1 sheet per box, if doing it the hard way no idea :) Tony |

Thank You for Your compliments The sheets we can buy here in Finland (the home of the famous Finnish Birch Plywood :-) are 1220*2440 mm (that is approx. 96*48 inches or 4*8 foot) and I am using 1 sheet / box. After making all the reflectors and internal bracing there is not much left of the sheet. Here is a picture of the cutting diagram. With some intelligent placing of the pieces I can make with one straight cut along the whole sheet, thus making sure the internal pieces are all very exactly the same width (464 mm). |

Build still going on, and still no testing, but here a few pictures. Note to self : next time install those T-nuts for the casters BEFORE mounting the back panel
Here a picture of the Speakons on the back handle. Edited by MagicJohansson - 02 May 2012 at 7:46pm |

Hi again, guys Sorry for not posting this earlier, but here goes. Here a detail-pic from the inside with the reflectors, bracing and handles
We have now gigged with this setup the whole summer and the expectations were fully met. |

has anyone heard how the THAM18s fair in comparison to the 15s? i know the specs r better but has anyone heard weather the bigger box makes enough difference to make it worth giving up more space? thanks :)

Hi Magic
Are you happy with the way they perform and what your thoughts about them after all this time? Rish

Hi Rish Yes, we are very happy with them, they perform really well and sound amazing. We very often get comments from people "That impressive bass can no way be coming from those small boxes" :-) They keep up with the EAW KF300e tops really well and are enough for crowds up to 250-300.
Our sound levels are not stupid loud, we try to keep around 100 dB in the middle of the dance floor, and go for quality. Originally we planned to build 2 more for bigger places but hasn't seen the need for it, at least not yet. The idea was to stack them 2 high each side and the EAW's on top, now we are using a distance tube in between. The only improvement we have done from the original pictures is change the mesh in front of the driver to a more sturdy (and better looking) steel mesh. |

Hello ! Thank you very much for the answer. Indeed I am a stranger and use google translater. In a few days I'll come back with a few photos and to make a comparison with Nexo LS 1200. Until then all the best
