The blue neon light inspiration project

Well I placed the blue 24" neon tube inside at angle and was disappointed with the illumination from the three ports. I guess it was the angle of the neon tube I was hoping for a bright even colour from each port. Oh well trail and error I guess some type of refection of the light inside the enclosure is needed or several small neon tube. Don't they do circular car neon tubes? That would work when placed near to the ports. Anyway since I've read Paul's sub bass baby thread of doom! Where I did find neon light an inspiring idea I've had to remove the neon tube and place it back underneath the TV monitor. Well I must say you had luck on your side with placement of the blue neon light, damn.          Here it is back underneath the TV monitor.  Here's a little Big Trouble from early this week, I like the colour that neon light does. |

I'm sure you've seen it before. You'd have to run it with a channel on each VC (so 2 amps) for 10kw or settle for 2.5kw. Just an option... http://www.tcsounds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=577&st=0&gopid=4850&#entry485 0 |
