Always good, to hear good reviews, glad you like it.Well, results were very good
That's a good in-between-driver. It will work in both Cubo 15 and Cubo Kick.I have already a couple of 18sound 15w700
As Cubo Kick is about 40% reflex and 60% horn, some drivers will find a better loading by the reflex part and some will find better loading by the horn part of it. The 15W700 matches both parts about equally well.
Best regards

Cubo15 wrote: The idea at the moment is to put out 3 Cubo Kick models. One for 15" drivers (62 x 62 x 62 cm), 80 - 200 Hz,. Then the same cabinet at 45 cm wide, which will work with both 12" and 15" drivers (though more aimed at 12" drivers) and does 90 - 220 Hz, so the use of 12" single or double will gain about 20 - max 30 Hz in the top end. Cubo Kick 12 does 110 - 250 Hz.
Other then that, when I've time I will look into converting each Cubo Kick to a trap model. I think it's an good idea to see what trap angle is most populair, although 11.25 degrees per side (makes 22.5 degrees/ 45 degrees/ etc.) would be my personal favourite, tho open for suggestions.
80 - 300 Hz sounds like a Xtro to me

You stated that a 12" or 15" can be used at a 45 wide. Using 18mm ply leaves only 41.4 internal width which is too tight if desired to use a 15" such as a PD.154,
What width would you suggest if using 15" and aiming for that 90-220hz?
Would be keen to have the traps specs if you have a ready one.

If you aren't necessarily set for 220 Hz, choose the width according to your needs though. You can make Cubo Kick Medium between 45 - 62 cm wide. Also see this table:
Too fit a 15" driver in a trap version of Cubo Kick 15 it has to be 62 cm wide at the front, it's height can be altered between 45 - 62 cm.. The lowered volume of the horn due to the trap-shape will affect the low frequency reproduction.

My prototype cabinet was build for that driver though and the magnet hitting the access hatch was solved by situating the driver slightly higher up the baffle.

Many thanks for your reply buddy, I thought they were off a bit on the TS but I get a good deal on them, I now have a new supply of different drivers and cubo has very kindly checked them out and they are good for cubo 15 ext and cubo kicks, so onwards and upwards, photos as soon as poss, cheers buddy.
