Post Subject: Closed box mass is agaisnt the horn load massPosted by unicon on: 10/3/2010

what you did in your horn :

you coupled your horn and you added mass on cone. then imagine when the cone tried to make an impulse it moves forward and then in back chamber something stops it from moving(air pressure+-) your driver had been stopped from moving from back and horn chamber.

I suggest make you back chamber as large as you can or just make it infinite chamber like or isolate the back roof side areas.
in my idea in infinite chamber you can avoid some unwanted resonances like that 125 315 hz( if its not due to your horn mouthing sizes )

and be patients =]
