with any cab it is best to use the drivers that the cab was designed for.

Hi guys, old member from speakerplans.

Are these MT 130 cabs similar to the MT121?

I've drawn the 130's up in CAD as per the spec but there seems to be dimensions missing for the section of wood which sits behind the speaker in the top section. The drawing shows the the height of the wood is 299mm but the distance from the front of the cab to where the piece of wood is fixed is not specified, does anyone know what it should be?

if you mean for the hf horn then it does not rearly matter... too much, put it as close to the horn as possible but not touching.....

It is irrelevant, the chamber size is of no matter.

Cheers guys smiley1.gif

Is this cab held in similar regard as the MT 121 or better?

I tried to upload my sketchup model incase it was of any use but the forum says the extension is not allowed, is this for copywrite reasons or am I ok to upload the file to an external host?

Many thanks smiley4.gif

nicky you are correct, smiley2.gif if you are going to build measure the horn with hf attached then work out how far back to put it..... ive not listend to eather so i dont no. why not build 1 of each out of mdf, very cheap to build proto types with and have a listen...... use it as a good guide on building the finished ones out of ply.
by wiggle
What advantages does ply have over mdf? Durability? I was under the impression mdf is good for speaker builds due to its density/sound reproduction? I'd only be building 2 speakers cabs and over a long period of time (when I get downtime at work) so I'd prefer to go all out making just two high quality cabs with minimum man hours

mdf would give the best sound quality, due its density. But its too easy for water, damp etc to ruin the box, also the corners and edges are not as strong. Birch ply is the best you want 12 layers to the ply and preferably 18mm on the sides of the box. Using ply is a trade off against life of cab vs sound. All pro builders use ply for pa use. You could use mdf for home use. For me i hate using mdf due to the fine dust particles when cutting. If you decide to use mdf please use a mask as the dust can be harmfull.
The upload should work now smiley2.gif

It should be attached now. All sections are done to scale so anyone who wants to use the model as a cutting list only needs to use the dimension tool to measure each part. I should add that the exploded diagram is a duplicate and is also to scale smiley1.gif

I'm fortunate in that I'm a woodwork technician so it is possible for me to use a fairly kitted out workshop, though it is a little old fashioned!

Is there a quality supplier which you guys use for your ply? Last time I remember looking it was around £70 for an 8' x 4' sheet @ 18mm
by bee
i pay £25.00 for 12mm and £35 for 18mm birch ply, b and q prices are a rip off. best bet is to go to a quality wood yard.
Loosely based on the MT-130.
I wanted a square cab and needed to use my Kappa Pro 500 drivers, these are too deep for plan.
Tops are Beyma CP-380m.
The cabs will go on top of ES18-BPH which is on top of Rhino.[attachment=2]P3180368.JPG[/attachment][attachment=0]P3180374.JPG[/attachment][/attachment][attachment=1]P3180373.JPG[/attachment]

is there a cut sheet somewhere? think ive figred it out but want to double check or could someone send them to me plz
by arxxx
Plz lemme knw how they perform
by lorz
hi. this will be my next project. but i plan to modify this plan. i want a double 12" in one box, perhaps the P Audio C12 500W, and a 2" 100W comp at the middle. what do you think about this plot? and for the throat section, what if i want to place a sort of phase plug in the middle? a king of straight vertical pcs of ply in the middle. it will look like the MT 122, but with a throat similar to the MT-130.
by lorz
sorry, there were some things that were not so clear in my former msg. i mean what can you say about this plan (not plot)? i mean a piece of of straight vertical... (not king). whew! i would like to use the BMD 750II comps by P Audio. i wish i know sketchup. regards
by tamuks

congratulations. what are the parameters of your driver? how about the quality of the sound and spl? how low did the 12" go? and cutoff frequency/crossover?
hey all

Was gonna play about with the MT-130 to modify it slightly and see what other drivers will work in it, but sims are coming out wrong, even with the recomended PD 121 driver.

Can someone post the HR data for me so I can see what silly mistake i'm making lol smiley1.gif
