The limit on DIY is …
The limit on DIY is the designer’s ability to test multiple iterations of a design they develop and spend time tweaking it out to the extent that companies like Community, JBL, EAW, and Meyer Sound can. Computer simulation tools can take you farther than ever but eventually you need to build a prototype and be ready for the eventuality that what you build doesn’t match the computer model.

Obviously you’ve never worked with Community products, then. When graded against other products in their class, they perform on-par or sometimes better. Look around the industry at guys like Kenton Forsythe, John Meyer, and Tom Danley. People trust their products because these engineers have years of experience, not because they’re youthful or pretty to look at.

Most PA full-range boxes have output that drops off very quickly below about 80 Hz. Manufacturers will often massage this spec, but look at the frequency response plot (if the manufacturer even lists one!) for the real story. Low frequencies take a lot of power to reproduce at high levels, and require large numbers of drivers working together. By restricting the low frequency band of the speaker, you can maximize the efficiency through the rest of the range. Most prosumer subs drop off by 50Hz.

see I cant stand the idea of a company that makes speakers for active musicians and sound engineers… has such a posh up top guy!? he seams like the type who doesn’t know his from his hand when it comes to what a live application requires as far as durability and sound mass… just doesn’t add up.

@wheelerwood
You mean MDF. Yeah its crap because it starts to fall apart after serious use, plus can’t take water as good as plywood so its not good for very long in weather has bursts of rain. I think JBL should do a video like this, but I guess they’re never gonna give away their secrets.

My church has a pair of Community Speakers. They are fine for vocals but seem to have no sound below 100 Hz. They have 15″ drivers BTW.

That’s an old video of the Community plant. Most of their stuff these days is actually 13-ply Baltic Birch, of the stuff that’s still made in the U.S.A.; that old antique CNC router has been replaced by a dual-table C.R. Onsrud 3-axis machine. Community has had a bit of an identity crisis, trying to serve the low-cost MI market and the high-dollar pro touring market under the same brand, which makes it difficult for their better stuff (mainly the SLS, iBOX, and R-series) to build the brand.

I dont see 13 ply Baltic Birch…. Let me be clear…. if you want an entry level cabinet stick with mdf or typical. Professional grade is baltic birch!! Baltic birch is lighter & needs less bracing while being much stronger. Community is known for cost reductions… Old community was much better…. come on guys… get it together & produce a superior product for a fair price!! Just want to say I am a degreed engineer & 15 year DJ, if you have any doubts of my comments.

Simple: Why buy the fact, if you can do yourself with a quality and unique if you propose, instead of buying andar fibreboard. In addition to what can be saved. The limits on the DIY … Simply don´t exist.

he truth is, disappointing.
Where are the nails, the saw, screws, glue Carpenter … Definitely is not like before. None of the acoustic enclosures you see in the video is original. Where is the solid wood?. The plywood? Pine?.
All to cut costs … Where is the true essence of acoustic enclosures.
I invite you to see my channel, acoustic enclosures true DIY. Everything as it should be.
I hope not to have offended anyone, because this is only my humble opinion.
Greetings!.

Back when I went through my horn-loaded phase in the ’70s, I had a pair of Community SRH-60 horns. They were certainly pretty loud.

I agree, on both levels. Community is a good value(for the money) AS a professional audio engineer who has been building and designing systems for over 26 years,I have a few issues with what I just viewed.The board material is chosen on cost,It’s WAFER board, the MOST RESONate material you can find.On top of that issue, joints are NOT dadoed’.Butt joints. And where is the adhesive for those joints?Material only 5/8 or 3/4 in.doesn’t have much surface area.Pneumatic STAPLES? Read my next post
