Questions about dimensions on 604B and 604G horns....

Great to hear. Hope everything goes smooth. I tore down a load-bearing wall so I could end up with a 13x23 livingroom.

Those are fun! Not.

What's holding up the roof up now? I just added some triangulation and still holding strong almost 43 yrs now.

I remember two two by tens or twelves with 3/4 inch plywood in between them. We started @ 4:05 and finished @ 5:55. (First drinks poured). And there's a 4x4 at each end holding everything up. What was really cool was watching the retired carpenter set everything up. Every other two x four was twisted in place at a ninety and they took every other one out. And no problems since, if you don't the quad 18's cracking the window !

I can believe that! Quad 515Bs in a quasi-6th order BP is overkill in my ~16x24 somewhat open ended room.

The 604 and 604B horns were true multicellular horns. The 604C-G used what amounts to a sectoral horn with little "vanes" in it. It doesn't perform nearly as well as the true multicellular horn does. GPA is, at last look, making the "B" horn again (Bill has the mold) and putting them on 604's. They work amazingly well. In fact, he's making the UREI horn also, and, when I looked at the TEF measurements for both, they're nearly identical!

Ya but Uncle Willy has priced himself out of the market. At least for us mere commoners. Just as I was going to pull the trigger on a set of 604-8h's , they doubled in price. He and Jeff Peace must be going after the asian and colorado market.

Well, it's not Bill's doing. It's the people who've bought GPA.

AND - Jeff Peace has been out the door for a long time.

I was in the same boat too... about to buy a pair, and bam!

But, My wife, then girlfriend bought me some 19's and I found some 604's that were in Urei cabs, so it all came out in the end!

I might still buy a set of the new 604's in the future after I sell of some extra gear/speakers though....
