I thought I would start with a simple project. A 2way double 15" trap cabinet built out of 3/4in ply. The cabinet comes with black carpet, two bar handles and two speakon jacks. <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/rodforeman"> Click Here for More Pics !</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19389016-1247878921547608304?l=strictlyhookups.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Strictly Hook Upshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15779256396469193684noreply@blogger.com18tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19389016.post-1159560985455666192006-09-29T12:54:00.000-07:002006-09-29T13:25:20.850-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/1600/IMG00018.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/320/IMG00018.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />I haven't posted in a while been very busy with speaker projects. Lately I have been getting a lot of request for Trapezoid cabinets. As you probably know I build mostly bass horn cabinets, but every now and then I will build a ported or sealed cabinet. The cabinet shown is a 2way 15" trapezoid ported cabinet dimensions are 24" wide 36" tall and 18" deep. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/55793600@N00/tags/2way/"> Click Here for more Pics</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19389016-115956098545566619?l=strictlyhookups.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Strictly Hook Upshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15779256396469193684noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19389016.post-1156541725073573052006-08-25T12:41:00.000-07:002006-08-25T14:36:26.716-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/1600/IMG00007%20%282%29.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/320/IMG00007%20%282%29.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>I have been real busy the last couple of weeks and haven't had time to update the progress on my double 18 Afterburner cabinets. I finally got these cabs done, loaded some woofers and man they sound AWESOME!. Plenty of punch for live sound and plenty low end bass for djs this cabinet is the best of both worlds. The dimensions are 22.5" wide x 47.75" tall x 30" deep they weigh 100 lbs unloaded. I covered them with black carpet metal corners. The jack plate has two speakon jacks,two 1/4" jacks, two spring handles, and two 4" wheels. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/55793600@N00/">Click here for more pics</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19389016-115654172507357305?l=strictlyhookups.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Strictly Hook Upshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15779256396469193684noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19389016.post-1152807863476253602006-07-13T08:40:00.000-07:002006-07-13T09:24:23.533-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/1600/IMG00025.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/320/IMG00025.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />My new Afterburner cabinet is a double 18 folded horn cabinet this cabinet will be great for pro sound applications. Both woofers will be loaded in backwards and I plan to have two handles on the back and two 4" wheels on the bottom. We will probably cover them with black carpet and add a front grill to protect the woofers. I'm also thinking about selling these standard with two 1/4" and two speakon jacks. These cabinets are very time consuming to build I can build two of my <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/strictlyhookups/page7.html">Thunder 18</a> subs in the same time it takes me to build one AfterBurner 18 sub. I hope to be finishing this cabinet this week. I'll keep you posted.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19389016-115280786347625360?l=strictlyhookups.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Strictly Hook Upshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15779256396469193684noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19389016.post-1151608182816018572006-06-29T11:46:00.000-07:002006-06-29T12:09:42.853-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/1600/IMG00004%20%283%29.0.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/502/1918/320/IMG00004%20%283%29.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /> Finally both Double 15 Scoops are complete. I plan to sell Empty Double 15 and Double 18 scoops on my website <a href="http://www.strictlyhookups.com">www.strictlyhookups.com</a> for $700 a pair . These cabinets are huge so they are perfect for night clubs.

I used these cabs on a gig this pass weekend (wedding reception) and they sounded pretty good. All four speakers can fit on the back of a small pickup or a SUV with room to spare great for small gigs.

I got one done last night. I built them out of 3/4" plywood glued and screwed seal cabinet dimensions are 17" wide x 23.5" tall x 22" deep.<br /> I plan to call this cabinet SFR12 (sealed full range) in the picture I have the SFR12 on top of one my new mini Thunder 12s. The Mini Thunder 12 is a folded horn cabinet loaded with a 12" woofer dimensions 17"wide x 30" tall x 22" deep, when you put both of these cabinets together you have a Mini Stack great for weddings,Basement party's, small bars etc. I tried both cabinets out this morning and they sound sweet together.<br /> I still have a lot more testing to do but preliminary test went good. I should have the other SFR12 cabinet done in the next couple of days. <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/55793600@N00/sets/72157594159963499/">For more pics click here.</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19389016-114980686721777078?l=strictlyhookups.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Strictly Hook Upshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15779256396469193684noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19389016.post-1149612313052631582006-06-06T09:40:00.000-07:002006-06-06T09:45:14.996-07:00I just started working on a pair of Double 15 scoops.
