O...M...G... :drool: Those look amazing.  :thumb:

If I had a room to put those in, I wouldn't hesitate.

Is that what all your flatpacks are like? How much wait time for a one-off special order?

It looks like you forgot the roundover on the woofer holes.

Hi Michael,

Shoot me a PM with what you have in mind. I'm sure I can make it very easy to assemble.

Thanks,

Ruben

Hey Rob,

Nope, didn't forget 'em. They aren't necessary.

I asked about the round-overs while building the Super 7's and Danny said they were not needed.

However, it's no problem to add the round-overs if requested.

Thanks for bringing it up.

Very nice!  :D

I'm new to OB bass and have a few questions:

What size are the drivers?
Where can I get the drivers?
What amp to use?
My room is 11'w x 15'l x 8'h will a pair work in my room or is a bigger space needed?
How low will they go?

Hi Rodge,

What size are the drivers?

12" This link will take you to the product page. http://gr-research.com/sw-12-16fr.aspx

I will also be offering a similar flat pack for the 8" version of the same driver. http://gr-research.com/sw-12-08-1.aspx

I'll let Danny chime in on this one as he can explain why OB subs perform great in smaller spaces.

Thanks!

The drivers are 12"  and you can get them herehttp://gr-research.com/sw-12-16fr.aspx
Danny also has an 8 ohm version which I believe is now available that will give you   more outut.
Yu can get the amp  here:

They'll work great in your room.   My room is  just slightly bigger at  12.5x18.5  and I have been using a single  H-Frame (2 12's)   for a few months and am just finishing off the 2nd  H-frame. I have no complaints about  the single H-frame on it's own, it is  wonderful.  Clean, tight, and very  detailed, never heard bass like  it before :) The plan has always been  to have  the pair and work each one less .  No lack of output though

The servo controlled  OB 12's will play flat to 20hz  and  -3 db  in the mid teens  I beleive.

Please post your results once you have both pairs running.

I have a single W-frame (two 12's) and I'm very interested in reading about your experience with two of them, especially at moderate listening levels. My room size is nearly identical to yours.

The 2 questions that come to mind are...

1. How much to spray a coat of paint on the pieces before shipping?
2. Does a pair of amp boxes come along with the flatpack?

Do you need one amp per woofer or one per h-frame?  Also, the 700/pair is it for 2 h-frame (as shown in the last picture)?

Hey Rich,

They will come in 2 and 3 woofer configurations.

Just shipping raw MDF.

Amp box flat packs are not included, but I can include a pair for an additional $50.

Thanks,
