Superscooper 18 Discussion/Scoop Design

I think the Shortman mini has got some BP going on, we all know how load BP cabs are

I think once you here a TH at a reggae gig, it will soon put scoops out of a job

you heard it here first smiley2

I mentioned a month or so ago to lev that the Emi scoop was about 3 db down on a positive layout. So maybe not as loud but sounds warmer, psycho acoustics again or a BP effect smiley20

Remember Mykey, the "only" reason Reggae/dub sounds "still" use scoops is the unmatchable efficiency.

No one I know would want "quiet" scoops :lol: , or would it would mean taking out more cabs, and then problems powering them on UK 13A sockets.

Especially as shortman mini can keep up with many full scoops.

I think ASS scoops are getting a few DB more because they're built like a brick shit house, not because of the layout

no, you must have 45's

What's the throw/sensitivity like on an 18" TH?
Can 4x of them cover 400 people 38-100hz ?
Are they approx H48"xW25"xD29"?

This is what they need to do/be if they're gonna replace scoops.

I used my MTH at the last reggae show i ran. They sound nice, but they dont seem to throw very far. And i'm a bit worried about taking them outside smiley24 . Great thread BTW, Learning lots! smiley20

we could start a whole new topic about scoops throwing now :crazy: smiley36

@Lev, listening to Reggae with TH is an experience that will win over throw smiley20

Small chamber scoop owners dont argue about throw anymore Mykey.. They just have it.. :lol:

Cab with no throw winning over scoops, in very small venue maybe..

But medium size or outside against 12x scoops..

Back on topic..

I guess we've finished talking about modding already built Super scooper then, and the result is..

Dont bother, sell them and make something else ?
