They are DIY cabs using Porn Mk1 12" section with Limmer 042 mid/hi section over them. From what you've posted elsewhere, you can't afford them, or would be better off buying a name brand like turbo or Void as you're in the same ballpark cost wise.

I just read thru Rog's comments again (above). (you there Rog?)...
Anyways... maybe I did put that a bit badly... I do apologise by the way.
What I ment was... the freq plot of ANY multi driver setup WILL change over distance.. be it porn, stasys, turbo, FK1.. MA912.. whatever... the different componants of the system WILL have differences in dispertion... hence the plot WILL change... (maybe danleys unity might be an exeption to this).
If I were to design a mid top.. I would probably design it with a goal of having as flat a response as possible (with no EQ)... to do this I would have to choose a distance at which to measure the response.. and seeing as everyone uses 1w / 1m.. I would probably use the same (maybe I shouldn't have called this a marketing trick
 ).However.. all I was saying was.. for high power - horn loaded mid tops.. this isn't really the best distance to design for.. or measure from... it should be far further.. closer to the actual crowd distance when in use (lets discount moshers in Norfolk at 1mm listening distance).
I know for a single cab you can plot at a high power and at greater distance, then work out the 1w /1m.. BUT with multiple sources.. does it still plot the same at 10m s it does at 1m (I say no).
That's the point I was trying to make.
I was not in any way critisizing the porn... it's the best DIY mid available in my view... just sadly out of my budget :(
I also have to say I think shootouts are very valuable, a learning experience for everyone involved and for the readers of the results.. and jolly good fun. Edited by adambomb - 27 March 2008 at 10:44pm |

I think the one thing Rog may miss is that he sees the industry from inside the industry, an increasing number of bands and DJs are wising up to the DIY option and for them it offers a huge potential to destroy a lot of the mass produced reflex drivers in boxes that Rog is talking about in the post above.
I think with Rog releasing the plans on the speakerplans website and people like Bill Fitzmaurice, Walt and Staiper coming up with their own offerings there is a lot of choice out there for people who want to build and an increasing number of people are doing just that. If you want to spend a bit more but have an easier option I think the Porn sits nicely in the midband price range between a good branded product and a good DIY option and offers a lot of performance at that price. In terms of designing it takes a huge amount of effort to achieve sonic perfection but with more and more people listening to mp3s and wma quality files which are ultra compressed, IMO people have lost a love for listening to music, its just there in their lives, they dont care about the intricate details of it anymore its just noise for a modern world. I am the complete opposite to this if I listen to digital its gotta be the highest quality you can find, and id rather listen to analogue where possible. I do wonder though, how much the population is able to discern music from sound, and talent from crap. I blame simon cowell, under 1% of the population have the "X factor" in any field and it doesnt appear to be any of those that receive the airtime, mostly because they are tired and bitter of the whole industry... sound familiar?
