Hi Michael,

Yeahhaaa...!!!
That´s what Bass should sound like for my ears.

Good news welcome to the club!

louder than my neighbours will tolerate and what suprises me most: I plays
real deap. I´ll probably don´t need to equalize the deep bass.

Thats the common finding that many who have never actually tried one caNot believe. Often the real (and measured) result means that EQ is not required (or very little).

This means building heavy walls for holding the Drivers, extra stands for
the horns (I want to keep them away from the shaking bassdriver)

Actually, as long as you have some decent weight for the baffle and stand, the Oris is not affected if placed on the top with Sorbothane or similar pads.

I used scaffolding tube (used for building construction!) for the frame, with a solid oak platform at the bottom, and a thick particle board baffle. Even with the two drivers at high volume, there is very little energy getting into the stand itself. If needed I could fill the steel tube with sand (or something heavier still), that would make it really heavy!

Regards,

Jonathan
