Dummy thinkin of building a P A

dont. your just waisting wood, money and your own time.

start again and follow the plans to the letter. they have been drawn this way for a reason.

you cant have gaps in your builds and all edges should b flush and mount as close to perfectly to the next piece. DO use lots of glue and as best you can clamp or screw down hard on each joint so to make that joint as strong as possible. gaps and air leaks and "wobbly" boards may not sound like they make a difference now but wait til you give the system some juice and start moving it around.

TRUST ME you cant just slap a box together and say "that will do"... it will sound nasty and if it doesnt destroy itself because bad construction moving it around certainly will.

So I have the amp now, and the two drivers, I'm gunna build the cyclopses as soon as I get money for wood. But what I don't know is how to plug in 4 speakers into one amp... Would I have to daisy chain them?

after re-building your tops properly.... you would plug 2x tops into channel A and 2x Bass bins into channel B, but using a crossover to make sure the tops and bins get the correct frequency bands.

...wen building the bins... remember lots of glue and leave absolutly NOGAPS or it WILL sound shite!

No it would be tweeter and mid into one X2 and two bass and 2 kicks into the other amp

And how do you plug two speakers into one channel?

If you wire the cabs on the sleakons in the back as +1/-1 and a second socket on the back linking to the 1st in the same way, a short simple speakon plug to speakon plug will make sure they will be wired in parallel wen hooked up.... providing your tops have passive internal crossovers. Bass bins the same.

....wiring the bins is the same barr the internal crossover.

No I NEED an internal crossover or can I just daisy chain the cabs?

and if I were to use one, how many cabs would need a crossover?

If you go for the internal 2 way passive crossovers on the MT130s, you will need one for each cabinet. The cabinets can still be daisy chained, just so long as you wire it right. Wire +1 to +1 to Positive input on crossover. -1 to -1 to negative input on crossover. Use the least amount of wire you can get away with. The input terminals will be identical and you can come in from the amp to either speakon, and then daisy chain from the other one.
