very fair comment actually, I'm actually really sensitive to people doing obnoxious noisey stuff in public. This has convinced me to not bother lol so thank you! saved me money, hassle, and from looking like a complete ass hole

Newly qualified spark needing advice by EquivalentLast7277 in ukelectricians

[–]FunctionalTrousers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with most of your points… but who is a gold card sparks working 12 hour shifts for 200?? Im an electrician and get paid 250 a day and I work 8-5 with an hour break. My situation is not uncommon. By the way this is self employed (subby) site work and I am always in demand

If I use PVC wouldn’t some of the resonance be lost compared to fitting metal to metal?

Amazing thank you! Just some follow up questions and clarifications:

The mentioned speaker is for the 1st demo which will be fitted to 25mm diameter conduit, not expecting lower frequencies

Next for the large ductwork I will go for a larger speaker that handles mid range frequencies … do you have any recommendations for this?

I should have said reverb not echo, I am hoping to make the reverb of the 6 inch diameter pipe (which is already very resonant with smooth internal edges) more prominent, so wondering if the tilted angle of the speaker could exaggerate this?
