I don't know how many of you remember Gumby. He is very similar in some ways to the ART Array, but preceeds it by a year or so.
Anyway, the final speaker ended up as an Open Back array on the mids, with 10 a side Vifa P11Wh in a 3223 power tapering. The single tweeter is the same DX25 as used in the ART. Array is driven by a pair of redesigned Dynaco MkIV's
The Bass unit ended up being the very excellent Jaycar 12" Carbon, driven by a 150wrms a side 'Peak' PA amp.

I then decided I needed a HT system with very little finacial outlay, so Pokey and his family came into existence. Again, the open back array was used, as was the basic shape of Gumby.

There are now 3 x 15" subs to go with the HT speakers, but I'm still waiting for Remy to finish the evil amp to drive them. This system has people ducking for cover during sci-fi movies ;-))

Ain't it all just so much fun ;-)))
