Front loaded cabs

This is true. I am very upset the doctor told my Wife she can't drink for awhile. She loves a specific brand of Tequila called Cajadores. I call it cajahores. I can do things to her she doesn't remember. It makes her resonate differently.

She is Front loaded. Much less beaming and wider dispersion.

Dispersion and beaming. Please elaborate. Also, this may qualify as a N00b question, but what about the phase of the speakers? When wired up and testing with the 9-volt, should the cones all move forward, or backward first, and what effect will THIS have on the tone? (I know you can make the speakers move EITHER way by reversing the polarity on the battery.)

Please educate...

Do you really think I know what I am talking about In a RL, the speaker edges will push into the baffle as the speaker pulses. It causes the baffle to act as a lens so to speak. An FL mounted speaker will pull away from the baffle as it pulses. It gives a more up front sound. It throws the sound more than the RL. It also disperses a little wider than the RL. The cab resoantes differently because of this. The RL mounted seems to keep more of the sound inside the cab than the FL. The cones should move forward with the nine volt test. I always check my speakers. If you find one moving backward first your cab will have phase issues. Without doing any reading these are what I remember and what seems true to my ears. But then again I am guilty of TUI.

Theoretically 100% correct, and sometimes, often times, noticeable to the human ear most certainly.

As for that lil' betty above with the JD, DAAAAAY-YUM!! I'd like to 'disperse' all over her during a rear load to front load session.

Thanks Mo.
She's yours. I just can't stomach seconds after another cone has already pulsated and gooped the speaker to stop cone cry. Did you wear a large heavy dust cover?

My Fryette Fatbottom 412s are rear loaded and I like them a whole lot.

Oops, I meant front...gig day today and my head is all over the place.

I know it.. Just bustin your balls
