I'm currently in the process of biulding a couple of 1850 cabs. I realise the PD1850 is the best suited driver... but its a bit out of my budget. I've heard the Void V18 1000 driver works quite well in this desgin, am i correct in thinking this? Does anyone know of a distributer where i can get my hands on this driver?

Or can anyone recomend another driver that works well in this cab? (budget of about 200 pounds per driver)

I'll get pics of the build up soon and im sure i'll have more questions as things move on...

They are out of stock on v1000 i've been told, next delivery is in two weeks. Sounds like a lot of people asked for them for christmas....

yea, thats why i was asking, i saw that they have a load on order, but had no idea how long that would take. are there no other distibuters around?

also, when cutting the mitres for the wood, i'm having a bit of trouble working out how to cut the really sharp angles, as my saw only goes to 45 degrees... how did others get by this problem? any little tricks to share?
