Oversize straight baffle style. I designed on to build myself a couple years ago, but I had to spend the materials budget on emergency dental work. Then the baby was born and I just didn't have the spare time. If I do it I may look into having Petras at Atlas build it for me. We'll see how the 612 build comes out first and what the money situation is in the near future.Ancient Astronaught wrote: if you do, you gonna do Sunn v-baffle or EA / Matamp oversized style?
You know I'd vote for one that matches the 6x12 atleast in aesthetics if not size as well. You could also do what I did and just order a 3x15 in a 6x12 enclosure, follow the golden ration 2:1 12's to 15's.Corey Y wrote:Oversize straight baffle style.

What kind of 15's did you put in yours? What's the impedance on it?Ancient Astronaught wrote:You know I'd vote for one that matches the 6x12 atleast in aesthetics if not size as well.

The one locked spec on any build is it has to be wide and deep enough for the head, because it's huge. Not that hard for guitar cab sizes, bass stuff is always more narrow.

Sweet score of 160lbs of badassery for dirt cheap!!!!! Our bassist has one of those, the cab sounds amazing and really fills a room but dear lord of mercy its a heavy beast. I'm fairly certain it weighs more than my 6x12.....fever606 wrote:New Bass Cab Day... Peavey 412 TVX... Holy mother of pain this thing is loud!![]()
Think I'm just gonna strip off the rest of the tolex and stain it...
I keep reading accounts of how heavy this thing is supposed to be, but I can wrangle it by one handle and an arm over the top...Ancient Astronaught wrote:Sweet score of 160lbs of badassery for dirt cheap!!!!!
