HAHA That is NUTS. A 6x12 is heavy enough. Very cool and it looks like he did a great job as well. I wonder who it is?

Here is a more recent pic of my madness. All the hardware is in the mail to finish both cabs (still missing tolex :grumpy:

) What do you guys think?

That 6x15 looks like a joke. But I love it.

Is that sitting on the 3x12?

Yes it is. But it won't be when I have all my cabs done. I will attack the 3x12 and 2x15 next to the 6x12.

I've recently come into two alnico SRO's and love the hell out of them. Great speaker, takes everything great about the EVM12L and eliminates the slight sterility of them by adding a heaping helping of rich warm articulate midrange, smoothing out the treble a hair while seeming to chime more (more spread, less pingy thanks to alnico compression), and rolling off a hair of the extreme lows.

The one I have now I had the seller ship directly to Orange County Speaker for a recone after I blew the first one I bought with it loaded in the ported bottom of my Boogie half-back. I fried it within 45 min. of owning it, but fuck those 45 mins were awesome as hell. I was riffing in C# with my P90 loaded LP > Octavio > White Dot NKT275 Sun Face > Tremoverb's clean channel. The cone was pumping like a mother fucker too. :lol:

Since the box showed signs of shipping dmg UPS paid the value of the speaker at time of purchase. So though it sucks I lost the original cone on a minty alnico SRO I am getting this one for just the cost of the recone and shipping. :joy:

The recone came back a week ago, and to my ears it sounds every bit as good as the original cone one did, the cone looks very similar too, but shinier/glossier.

Here are pics of the 1st near mint one. It's being reconed by a local guy whose done tons of them, he also builds tweed based amps under the name Hurricane, and used to own an electronics repair shop in town before he "retired."

So, for the cab I'm leaning towards...

A) OS diagonal ported 2x12
B) Theile 2x12
C) OS diagonal sealed 2x12 with convertible back.

What do you guys think would take full advantage of these monsters?

I'm going to buy a used table saw, & my buddy has a miter saw, router, and some other wood working tools. So we're going to build this from scratch. I have a very cool idea for the design too if I go with either A or C. B will just look like a big ass 2x12 with a traditional grill cloth.

EDIT: I could also combine designs by making caps to close any ports in the design of A or B, and making the back convertible? :idea:

I always say go with what you think you'll be utilizing the most. be it ported or not, unless changing between the two often is your normal bag then combine all 3 like you said that way you have a heap of options to play around with in tweaking a sound.

Speaking of EVMs and SROs, check our what I just picked up. I got all 8 for $250. My 6x12 will be glorious.

You did damn good.

Yeah, I'm thinking this is how I want to go. Now to decide on a Theile design, or a different ported design. Thanks man.

Damn dude, I'm almost jelly. My alnico SRO's will keep me warm and happy though. That's one hell of a set up man, hope you got a dolly. :lol:

Here's some of the current line up...

Fane AXA12 and G12H(55)

There are now two Mesa V30's in with the EVM12L's instead of the Fanes.

I've also got...

The alnico SRO in the post above, and another coming back from recone this week going in my Boogie halfback cab.

A one of a kind Fane manufactured modern Crescendo prototype built on a Fane Studio 12L chassis with a metal dustcap. It was built for a speaker line they never ended up releasing.

And 1 vintage Fane Medusa 30. (The Crescendo and Medusa are paired in an open back 2x12).
