Hey, I could use a couple of those also. I've done a DIY thing with bar stock and so far I'm not happy with the look.

Finding some JUST like that could be like waiting on the bus...

For ready-made functional equivalents, you might try here.

I'd prefer baffles unless I was hanging some on poles at a ballfield. I think that's why they put holes in the flanges.

Consider a church bell. It's mounted by the stub end instead of the mouth so it WILL ring.

This model is probably discontinued. The only type of bracket available are those for speaker box mounting.

JBL has such brackets. You might want to look at them.

Unfortunately the wall type braket is discontinued.

And I wanted to install more church systems with only Mantaray horns what a bummer.

That 2506 ought to work for small format Altecs if you mounted by the driver studs, (except for the round-throated Noryl MRs). 3" slot down the middle. Just a couple of nicks in the right spot and some extra flat washers.

Or was that the one that's discontinued?

bfish, that was funny. I got a belly laugh out of that.

The baffle thing probably does make more sense. Got any pics or ideas.

Still chucklin about that bus thing. If you only new how long I labored on a moniker before I settled on that one and why. The last time I went through choosing a moniker was the aohell days way back when. I went with lastscrnname because everything I tried was taken. I'm not really into the alias moniker thing but I'm just paranoid enough to not want to do my name.

I had my ID lifted once, scary stuff indeed. My money didn't last them long enough to have any fun on, then they found out what little fun it really was being me...besides, if you'd used your name, I'd have had no pun fuel.

A baffle can be big flat and ugly (for best performance, like women in that aspect), or completely hidden by the flange if stiff enough, say a 2-by frame on edge...which could become a road cabinet with some tolex, or a pseudo-M19 top section with stain.
