Today, spent a lazy 2 hours building the new 30Hz Tapped Horn sub. Oh so easy. All panels pre-cut by supplier...just drew them up, glued and clamped. Tomorrow I'll seal all inner joins, then glue final side panel. Driver is 6.5 inch (yes, 6.5 inches), Tangbang. Design is Volvotreter. http://www.volvotreter.de/th.htm  I'll run a 100-watt plate amp, for 30Hz to 95Hz to cross over to the mids. Down the track, I'll probably add another sub the same. Earlier, I built the massive 18Hz TH sub...but not sure if I need to do that again for this 4-way horn rig...then again! Andrew

Running simple RCA piggy backs from valve amp output to plate amp, which is Digitech (JayCar), 100-watt. simple enough, nothing fancy. Would like to integrate the volume of the plate amp with the main amp though. I'll lay the sub flat under the left mid-bass horn, and fire it into the corner. I'll build up the right mid-bass horn to the same height...or build another bass sub. Once all tested, then I'll paint up the cabinets to match room decor.

The extra height is good....90cm to floor for tweeter, 110cm for the mid horn. Just a nice BIG wall of sound...with excellent integration. Andrew
