I is funny how my listening attitude is working. While my midbass horn is not built I do not listen music on my main system. I listen in via my MiniMe (Dunlavy 3) or in my headphones at work. At my home system I do not listen but rather think how it shall sound when the playback will be up to the demands I would like it to be.
As I told I know very precisely HOW I would like my midbass to sound. It shell be exactly how it was in my old apartment but much much much softer. That bass softness is something that practically never discusses by audio people. There are many reasons for it. First, the audio people have difficulties to understand what they hear. The second is that most of horn people do not get the notable softness from their midbass. I think I heard the interesting softness from bass horns only 5 times ever. I do not know WHAT is responsible for the bass softness in horn design but I know that it might be there or might not, mostly it is not there.
So, in my wet dream I see my midbass very soft, always like a concentrated degreaser or shampoo. I do not know exactly what might be responsible in horn for this quality but I know how to recognize it and how to use it. I am sure I will hit one way of another the right acoustic pressure at right frequency but I pray that the my midbass horn turn out to be soft, hopefully “super soft”.
