Post Subject: Early firing Midbass hornPosted by Saturntube on: 8/26/2009

This is very interesting, I was thinking of such an option given the existence of a basement, (I do not have that luxury, but I have a concrete slab).
The idea that the driver is actually closer to the listener than the mouth could help over come the time alignment problems we have been discussing,
that way the driver would "shoot" or "fire", closer to the listener and still have time to travel through the horn...
I personally dont like the sharp 90 degree bend, maybe a loop or curve could be implemented to give it a better geometry,
now maybe if I can invert it to travel through the roof, instead of the floor I could implement something similar.
