In Reply to: RE: Lowther on JE Lab OB posted by FTT on March 31, 2009 at 18:31:09

I agree with Chopper, though I didn't build the JE Lab OB, I came up with my own design. I cut mine off at 125hz and use Altec 416s to fill in the bass duties (bi-amped via an active crossover). This pic is while I was still using my 15" Goodmans for the bass.
Watch EnjoyTheMusic.com over the next couple of months as I've got an article that details my OB (basic) construction and my Lowther journey over the past six or so years.
In a nutshell, Lowthers in an OB using a sub to fill in the bass are simply stunning. The sound is even top to bottom and the OB design throws a HUGE soundstage. I've searched for a lot of years trying to reach this sound and unlike others, I seriously doubt I'll ever go back to conventional speakers again.
Now you are getting close to the Basszilla...just add a ribbon tweeter and change the crossover some...

What are the dimensions of your OB and what is the mounting height (to the center of the Lowther driver)?
TIA,
They are 53" tall and 15" wide.
