The Bahama system by @alephalef.sound
We couldn’t shake the idea of a portable, RLA-style club stack — so we built one.
The Bahama tops run a dual 14” configuration, beefing up the mid-low section, paired with a horn+acoustic lens loaded compression driver and topped with the sweet JBL 2405 super tweeter.
Underneath each top, 3x18” bandpass subs — a specific design chosen for its thumpy, light low end.
HiFi components, Wide soundstage and a Warm and glamorous voice, with PA output.
Don’t miss it:
Listening Session 18 April 26 - 12:00-22:00h CiC Berlin

HOQS ELF- subwoofer with Lavoce SAF185.00 (my personal opinion)
ELF subwoofer loaded with the new LAVOCE SAF185.00 they were my personal surprise of this year’s Weekend of Sound.
The SAF185.00 adds a warm, friendly tone to the ELF subwoofer without missing the punch.
For me, this is the missing link between the very tight-sounding HOQS N185C—an excellent choice for techno and other high-BPM music—and a more inviting bass that better suits genres like house, rock, and pop, where a more vibing low-end character is often preferred.
Thank you @lavocespeakers , for bringing the ELF subwoofer cabinet back to my menu!

A wooden Solana Waveguide loaded with Lavoce drivers: How does that sound?
In the afterhours of the WoS 26, Liam (@spring__boot ) and I assembled a wooden Solana with Lavoce drivers.
The first listening impression: this Setup sounds more “Hi-Fi” than the original driver combination. The sound feels warmer, the low-end a bit more vibrant.
Does it sound better than the original combination?
That depends on your personal preference. I couldn’t choose a favourite. Probably like comparing the sound of a DCX464 vs BMS4594 compression driver.
Does wood sound better than plastic?
Our first impression was that the difference in sound characteristics mostly came from the drivers. When playing at volume, the wood subjectively felt like less vibrations. The measurements didn’t show an obvious difference in distraction between the two WGs.
Details:
We compared a CNCed plywood version of the waveguide to a FDM-3d-printed version made from PETG. As you can see in the photos, the project in its current stage is more a prototype than a well-designed part. The measurements were done in a hurry and lack proper setup.
Drivers:
HF: LAVOCE DN10.172K
LF: LAVOCE WAN061.80
