Check out speakerplans.com

You can’t actually build Looneybins as they are a copyrighted product and the designs are not available. But they are a very slightly modified version of the original design PD1850 that can be found on the site above.

Hope that helps.

i was under the impression that you could build your own speakers form any design as long as they wouldn’t be used for any commercial purpose (eg. to be sold or rented out, or used in a pay-event)

could i build half scale bass bins ?

i’ve been thinking for a while of getting some 9″ drivers and and building the cabs 1:2

would this work, is it worth it, or should i just build full size ?

I think he just meant that they don’t give out their plans.

I’m gona have to say no to that one. While it would make noise iit would take a very special driver to get low enough at volume.One I doubt exists.
