This is my first horn build effort. Been thinking about this since starting to build loudspeakers and finally have a listening space big enough to support a horn system. This is where I am at now, I know there are opportunities for improvement. And I...

"This topology was invented by Steen Duelund"Ah-hm, ring radiators where not invented or even re-invented by the Steen Duelund dude, just copied. JBL used the priciple 40 years prior to that in: 2402-2403-2404-2405 and Fostex have been using them al...

I recently completed some upper bass horns which I'm now enjoying very much. Sadly I lack the skills of someone like Jessie so my efforts are crude in comparison, but they are working well for me which is the main thing.I already had some old frontlo...

[quote user="Merlin"]Well firstly on those, the tweeter is not offset to one side - it appears to be time aligned directly behind the midrange horn and upper bass unit. Secondly, that's a JBL 2405.[/quote]I do not know which driver the Living Voce us...

-Background- Enspired by Jeffery Jacksons system as displayed @ VSAC, I'm building a five-way horn system. Tapped horn for up to ~80Hz; w/ Eminence driver 65Hz Tractrix from ~80Hz to ~400Hz w/ fane 8"; 250Hz LeCleach from ~400Hz to ~2...

Hi Romy,

Ok that was a long road to "stick with vertical alignment, and stay away from BMS." Back to compression drivers, and implementation...
If I were in your shoe I would take make as you wish but wish a slight correction:

@Mats -- Thank you! This has already been the best sounding system I have built and designed, but hearing how good it sounds, lets me know how good it can be in the future. Thank you for the info on the JBL 2482. I've considered swapping the diaphrag...

i will upload a pic.i have no problem with an additional channel!1.)i dont have to build it right now, the 60hz-horn with the s2 mf and 2405 hf will sound quite nice(at least i hope so;-) and i have something to build on.2.)i prefer to do things by m...

Here are a few answers1. a, 84 Hz b, 4.8 inches square c, Hyperbolic exponential, T 0.8 1/2 Pi d, none so far on upper bass horn. S2 and 2405 have series capacitors feeding them. e, Eminence Kappa 12. 4. Both tweeter and S2 ca...

Wojtek, Yes, too late. Once you've heard a good "stupid horn installation", there's no going back is there?
Yes, something similar to what was shown in Jeffery's GOTO installation. It should work the same on the floor or ceiling, (...

The whole room (L-shaped) is larger as you all noticed, but as Roman saw in my Blog , the listening space is smaller - i.e. about 6,5 x 4,5 meters with low 2,70 ceiling - and is a perennial work in progress... yes, the Stereo Lab 1000 hz is a true wa...

it would be nice if somebody who knows a thing or two about mathlab and pspice would develop a accurate model. in pspice one could include the crossover in the simulations....when i tried your recommendation with s2 and 3uF cap my "basshorn" ref...

Robert, what I meant is following: when you will be collecting requirements for you own drivers specification and will evaluate the implementation methods then you need to have you own identity what you are trying to do. I might post a lot of differe...

hi. That’s a nice topic. I studied the VO like a maniac. For me there are 3 topics. First was obvious, easy, the horns. The bass horn for the ak151 is housing a rear chamber slightly open, giving the injector channel - that creates a lot charme, flav...
