Hi Mark
Thanks for your reply and help.
The tone controls seem to do nothing from left to centre, then from centre to full right you get an increase of bass or treble. They were sold as log and marked "A".
With the back fitted it does make the speaker sound flat, it seems to emphasize the low mids, like a hollow box, which oddly enough is what it is.
It sounds very nice with the back removed. I will look for some foam to shove in there to see what effect that has.
But at the moment it looks as if;
A, it is the wrong type of bass speaker for the cabinet
B, the cabinet is made of the wrong wood, oak is too solid.
C, I may have to cut a new speaker baffle and fit 4 of those 4 inch speakers. They would be able to handle the full power of the Z30 so a change of PSU could be done.
D, I may just leave it as it is. and forget the project.
