Post Subject: 615Hz Horns on the plate.Posted by Gargoyle on: 8/3/2024
I am currently printing the "large" horn today, to explore running the DE10 driver below 2500Hz, maybe around the 1500Hz. EDIT:I will make the cone but 1500Hz is too close to impedance peak.
These are tractrix as well.
I would also like to take the opportunity to label this project/these speaker(s) as "Airship(s)" ™
Originally these DE10 were chosen as the highest channel, although there is the possibility it could be used in a second position, as to not cover too many octaves
This driver does roll off a bit at he top end. Not a huge concern as long as it sounds nice up to that point.
Tonight I think I will design the "small" cone. When the drivers arrive I will set them up as a 1-way or 2-way with a 6.5" dynamic driver and use them for daily listening.
(This system will be used for everything) This way I can get to know the driver intimately. and choose the cone that sounds nice, (least sibilant, smooth) then go from there.
It's an individualistic approach as it is obviously not practical for me to choose the devices based as a whole package. I don't think it is a problem.
