david_l_perry Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Brand new built. £350 Fully loaded with two 2510 neo drivers and 10 melded crossfired piezo's Rated at 500w 4 ohms. Massive mid range clarity. No problem handling 5 string bass. I use nothing other than the [i]very best quality Birch Ply[/i] for building cabs - nothing else comes close for building. Its wired with 2 speakon sockets. This cab faired [i]incredibly [/i]well up against top end competition at the Basschat meet up this weekend. I had already pretty much decided that I wanted to build an Omni15 prior to finishing this cab(far bigger and more expensive build than the Omni 10)...building bass cabs is simply a passion that I cant stop now......If I could afford to keep this [i]and [/i]build the Omni15 I would, no question.... Its literally two weeks old and left the house for the first time this weekend. Here is a soundbite played with my Status 5 string and Mark bass head (flat EQ) [url="http://www.pjltd.plus.com/Omni%2010.wav"]Omni10 soundbite[/url] This is the build diary:- [url="http://billfitzmaurice.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=5141"]Omni 10 build diary[/url] Here are some shots of the cab:- Here are some shots during the build:- You can see the fully sealed piezo box that I have used here so that leaking piezos are out of the equation:- Pm if interested Dave
BigBeefChief Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 How much does it weigh? Apologies if it says on the build thread, but I can't find it.

Building out of Birch ply adds a little more weight, but also adds a [i]lot [/i]better quality to the construction.... Its like picking up a 4x10 bass cab with no drivers installed..... Dave
niceguyhomer Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 We AB'd this cab with my Bergantinos - it was astounding and very light too.
2x18 Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 I tried this cab out last week and must admit it sounds excellent, plus the build quality is superb, better than most commercial cabinets. At this price it is a steal and if I didnt already have an Omni cab this would be mine! Regards -- Will.
gilmour Posted March 17, 2008 Posted March 17, 2008 Already - blimey Dave! I shall look forward too you putting me to shame with your O15
