Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: The absolutely “best” material for horns construction. in Horn-Loaded Speakers  41 Replies 
[quote user="decoud"] One of the problems with horns is the inflexibility of frequency cut-off: you are limited to a discrete number equal to the number of horns you have. This makes experimentation difficult without having an absurdly large array of...

Very many thanks for the link: I shall take a look. I know you have built tapped horns yourself, JLH, but have you tried the synergy horn approach and seen how it compares with conventional horns? Danley's kit seems to be targeted at large venue high...

Low power set should not be a problem. The Unity was fine with SET amplifiers, so the Synergy should be no different, if not better. The Synergy horn is different than the original Unity horn. There are some very specific improvements in the Synergy ...

Browse the content of the threads in new Window  Thread: The absolutely “best” material for horns construction. in Horn-Loaded Speakers  41 Replies 
Perhaps I misunderstand the unity horn, but I did not mean my suggestion to depend on summation: the idea simply is that one horn flows directly into the other, rather than being discrete; you could have the bottom or top half alone. So the profile i...

I’m absolutely certain that the mids and lows are designed in the same function supporting fashion as I described the compression driver. Danley explicitly explains this in his patent. For my own amusement, I went through all the math and calculation...

John, I have to confess that I feel very not easy about the idea of Synergy horn. I did not hear the Danley Synergy horns and I have very superficial understanding of what he is trying to do with the whole Synergy/Unity idea. The whole idea does ...

If I think about the last 10-20 years, the only name that keeps coming up is Tom Danley. Synergy and Unity horns and tapped horn subwoofers got a fair amount of traction in the pro sound and DIY HiFi world. Just about everything else is “old technolo...

It is not surprising that the subject of horn is as screwed as the subject of drivers. It is understandable as driver must be made for specific horn loading, not one make drivers properly, so what the horns are made for? A horn is a very simple dev...
