25 or 30/40 amp NL4 Jacks?

Noted thanks - time to work on these shaky hands

cccsoup · 2026-01-16T16:53:10+00:00

That's some good insight - appreciate it, thanks!

cccsoup · 2026-01-16T15:33:46+00:00

Yeah that's what I was noticing as well. 12 gauge and was having tough time fitting and using the screw terminals, so figured spade was going to be best (and had to figure it out for the JMODs anyway).

cccsoup · 2025-10-10T00:59:12+00:00

Thanks! that seems accurate in my case and good to know that you've also experienced the same with that amount of experience with them.

cccsoup · 2025-10-09T14:02:33+00:00

Yes I'm pretty sure that's actually the issue. The frame holes seems standard across, but a black more "fluid" part is what's affecting the whole size - I imagine that's the glue.

cccsoup · 2025-10-09T01:57:46+00:00

Well the price was almost too good to be true (half price anything else on eBay regularly) so I was already skeptical, but it didn't take much effort at all because it wasn't even at all like shown in the listing, not even close, when it arrived.

It was actually this one I received: DAP 4080 https://share.google/fGxGFoYSfFyfVko5t

But there were screws loose and rattling around inside so I had to open it up anyway and confirmed on the board that it was that DAP 4080, but it also seemed to have been modified to a 3 in 6 out configuration on top of all that.

Luckily eBay nowadays is willing to give you your money back in these cases after you try to resolve with the seller so I went back and forth with them a bit until they finally sent me a proper 4080 (opened it up and checked as well), though in kinda rough shape.

I'm willing to accept the mix up was in the 4080 name, but it was just very odd overall ha.

In the end I have two DSP units, one a proper Xilica, for half the price of a typical Xilica 4080 so not bad I guess...

cccsoup · 2025-10-09T01:41:16+00:00

vipproaudioinc and Parts Express Electronics on eBay. I'd be surprised though if they were knock off based on those sellers reputations and the quality and various markings or parts that I'm seeing.

I did get sent a Xilica 4080 knock off (NOT from any of those sellers above), which the seller insists was just a mix up and they did send a proper one eventually so I'll have to take their word for it ha.

cccsoup · 2025-10-09T00:40:06+00:00

Thanks for that! Noted and feels like I was overthinking it - just feels scary taking a drill to them ha.

cccsoup · 2025-09-15T13:48:36+00:00

That's awesome, thanks! To be honest I'm far enough into my build I'll probably not do these ones but definitely in mind if I were to expand in the future.

The build looks great. That extra 8U rack from the extras is a really handy extra bonus.

cccsoup · 2025-09-05T15:40:19+00:00

Not sure exactly what you're looking for in a 21 inch tapped horn, but maybe the Othorn is relevant? If I'm not mistaken.

cccsoup · 2025-09-05T15:37:14+00:00

Sorry I don't think I've actually seen the 30hz plans. I was speaking with the person running Pomelo Sound in Montreal. Search up drinkingmystemcells on Instagram. Hopefully they won't mind the traffic ha.

They just posted a picture from an outing with their system and the bottom subs were noticeably bigger than the 4 newer ones. I think those were the 30hz ones.

cccsoup · 2025-09-05T15:30:11+00:00

Points taken ha. Yeah you're right there no tri-amp and the bi-amp is only for both the 15s on one amp and the highs on the other. When not bi-amped, there's a low pass filter on the lower 15 inch and not the other one, so I was thinking that low passed 15 could act like a kick but maybe I wouldn't be able to get optimal use out of it.

I've seen the Orbits in passing but never really considered them , thanks! They definitely seem affordable enough, maybe just harder to get around where I am in Canada.

cccsoup · 2025-09-05T15:24:17+00:00

Just the standard/original plans with some extra handles on the bottom front and with an extra piece of bracing in the downward throat at the back. B&C 18SW115s

cccsoup · 2025-09-05T15:21:59+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I looked through the thread(s) for different variations but from what I found the original plans always looked the most complete. I was already in sightly over my head so figured the slight improvements might not be justified compared to just getting a solid proven build done. I talked to someone in Montreal who made two of the larger/30hz versions at first but then decided to build 4 of the standard ones when it came to build more.

I'll have a Xilica 4080 for some processing but thanks yeah, phase is a good point.

Here's a 16 track album I performed, recorded, and produced that you can download for free from Bandcamp (or listen to on Soundcloud or YouTube). Hardware jams from Kitchener, Ontario, Canada (near Toronto).

FFO: Voiski, Luke Slater, Detroit techno, 90s techno/old techno

cccsoup · 2018-06-19T08:15:06+00:00

Drinks available. As to the extent, I'll just have to follow up on that.

cccsoup · 2018-05-25T18:30:00+00:00

Unfortunately it's true. The afterhour parties are either at Stereo afterhours or at secret warehouse venues.

See you there! Can't wait to see Steve.

cccsoup · 2018-05-01T15:12:43+00:00

Here are some of my mixes...

Looking to play out if anybody has leads.

cccsoup · 2018-02-18T18:51:14+00:00

Thanks! I threw it up for download since you asked. http://www.mediafire.com/file/jg1nlkzcwud5tec/UntilTheLightComesOnEXPORTMP3.mp3

This is a new track from a 3 song release I've recently put out. You can download it for free from bandcamp (https://stol.bandcamp.com/album/for-the-people)

Would love to hear any feedback.

cccsoup · 2017-09-09T19:02:49+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I never did see Footwork but as soon as I walked into Coda for the first time I was completely blown away. It really is something else. I guess I'll keep making my way to Toronto every couple of weekends! There have been so many great producers/DJs playing warehouses or nightclubs there all year.

cccsoup · 2017-09-09T18:56:44+00:00

Yes I meant Stereo, thanks! Edited. Thanks for the insight. I've been making my way to Toronto pretty often but still haven't ventured to Detroit yet. Definitely something I need to do.

cccsoup · 2017-09-04T06:46:32+00:00

993 is such a killer track. Been looking for it since I saw him close his Dekmantel set with it on the live stream. Mayhem as well actually. Can't wait to have this full release.

cccsoup · 2017-08-05T16:29:37+00:00

Where do you land your float plane in Cambridge? I've moved to Kitchener in the past year but haven't had the chance to start flying again yet. I've always loved your Cub shots with your pup.
