Post Subject: Multiplying by zeroPosted by N-set on: 4/17/2017
Anthony, irrespectively of all the extreme acrobatics you are doing with the inner damping and the structural isolation, sound wave hitting your tubes
can multiply all your work by zero. As simple as that. Big tubes = big inner structure structure = lots of possibilities to catch vibrations.
This can cause signal modulation and in extreme cases the microphone effect.
Can you somehow model the sound field at your desired amp location? Perhaps the tubes will happen to be in some shadow? 
It is your project, but if it was mine, I'd detach the amps from the horns, leaving some freedom with the amp positioning.
Or you can try making them detachable: You do what you planned and if the sound field is too strong, you detach the amps
and try to find them a more quiet location.

Which CAD software are you using? 

Cheers
