I am not and expert in wood construction, all the building we do around here is brick and mortar, but, If you get the Horn wall close to the roof you could fill that space up with that spray expanding foam. The side of the Mid bass horn will be sti...

Here's a pic (link) of my listening position.When I built my large Bill Fitzmaurice bass horn...I had thought about placing it in that space above the speakers, firing into the corner. I may still do that...but the sub is serving duties in the separa...

With the height, I plan to have the mid horn set around 1200mm with tweeter below, eg 900mm.
These will reside on a timber or metal stand I'll fabrecate miself.
What are some important considerations here?

If you read Danleys paper, you see that the lower you go in frequency, the more this device turns into a direct radiator. He just vents the HF drivers from the throat, more or less optimised, the midrange drivers a bit further out and the LF drivers ...

Bass horn sub now fitted underneath, with false shelf added for the righ hand side mid bass horn.
The extra height is good....90cm to floor for tweeter, 110cm for the mid horn.
Just a nice BIG wall of sound...wit...

I've had a long-time desire to replace my Edgar 80hz midbass shells with a better performing solution. My Edgarhorns arrived in 2005, and I made incremental improvements over the years until now they have little in common with the original Edgarhorn...

I have seen Beyma rewrite their specs when they redo a driver and even add a letter to the driver for that change, even if it is the same driver.Now I have seen variable FS responses form different drivers of the same model also. I was joking with a...

[quote user="ulf"]Let me tell you a bit about how an why we designed the midbass horns the way we did.A few years ago we discovered the tractrix horn for MF use. It was really the most important improvement so far. No more honking exponential horn so...

Unluckily I have no experience with IB, would love to. Any way If you want it hidden and time aligned, the best bet is the uderground!Now having all that space there it would be a pity not to go IB.The IB idea can be much more elegant than the pic...

[quote user="haralanov"]I think you wanted to say reflection surface, not radiation surface, right? Radiation surface is the surface that is directly attached to the vibration creating element (the voice coil). So the radiation surface of the horns u...

I want to take a powered 12+1 and mount it onto throat of a Horn to see how much more spl I can get while still wideband. Am I crazy ? KT ...

It is not the thread to talk about Tapped Horn but listening to what you Tapped Horn users saying I do understand my suspicions about the concept. I can’t objectively judge sound from Tapped Horn as I did not hear any properly made, calibrated and in...

Hello Dan,Love how you pass that cable through the port, I used to do that too...long time ago.Why are you crossing your 250hz horn all the way up to 1 khz?The 2445 should be able to go much lower. Have you measured the response you are getting from...

I got this new midbass horn to replace the Edgar 80Hz straight horn. It is made by Funktion-One and they claim it plays down to 90hz. I could not get it to play below 120Hz and I am trying to figure out why.Pictures are:mouth measurements with no fil...

Romy,In general thinking, I mean in average, a horn to be used with ALE P160 or GOTO SG-146LD with a mouth of 2.8m x 2m (5.6m²) or 110" x ~79", is appropriated to going down to how many cycle, considering full mouth? What should be the length?Thanks!...

Actually you do not need anybody to “design” an upper bass horns

It goes quite flat to 20hz with the tapped horn. 20hz to 60hz with the tapped. It has 18db/octave Linkwitz-Riley, and then to dual Tad1601b, where you see the rising of the response around 74hz. I have tamed these bump some, but it needs a little mor...

How do you even time align a Klipschhorn to any other driver? This is one of Romys axioms and I see no solution with folded horns. I am surprised that it was even mentioned!...

Hello,I just logged myself in so first of all: Hi Everybody ;)Few days ago I aquired a pair of very interesting 3way horn speakers which seem, as I imagine, to ba an ambitious DIY project from the past. These are basically the Altec Vott A7 replicas ...
