Hi
I am not using Le Cléac'h flares myself.
But his aproach to designing horns is interesting, I think.
I did make a Le Cléac'h horn a couple of years ago,
just for testing. It sounded very good.
cheers ;)...

You have identified the tricky parts -the transistion between the front and back horn as well as the throat of the front tractrix horn. A one to one throat with the front horn works best with my coaxials and a short 1.25" straight 'ring' ...

“All speakers are equal but some of the speakers are more equal then others”
The more I exposed to the different loudspeakers, the more I’m learning that the horn-loaded loudspeakers are the most interesting creatures. Nope, not because they might o...

Hi
Some loose thoughts.....
A system where each amp-driver-horn-room interface are designed to work together as a unit in their respective frequency bandpass...
They each have to be optimized to work in their respective bandpass,
but at th...

Sorry to steer away from Harley, but have you Horn guys ever tried different flare terminations? That is, the boundary condition where the mouth and room meet. I once saw some interesting stuff done on large radio antennas that improved g...

Allo Romy, I have no idea about the above - my gut feeling is that the required thickness of material would be too great, still, I bow to your experience in S2 mods. I just wanted to mention something that came to mind that might be of interest: I re...

Hello all (from Thailand)!I found this very intersting horn society here by accident and would like to show and share my first experience with horn speakers system.It's consist of 4 way system .[IMG]http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg69/krairerk/hi...

I prefer to use closed-cell polyurethane for my horns. It is light, strong, dimensionally stable and acoustically dead.It was used very successfully by Electro - Voice on their SM120a radial horn.This horn was designed by D. B. Keele and was used in ...

Hi Romy,
Unfortunately I have never arrived at a fully integrated horn system - but I have mostly enjoyed the attempt. I think those who buy my horns (Azurahorn) are, like me, working on the deeper task. I actually ke...

Hi Chris, all Allthough most of the work is done by the compression driver at 5 K , I would still use a proper horn, a horn that loaded the driver down to 2500Hz would be minimum IMHO. You can still use a Le Cléac'h horn if you wish. ;) cheers ;)...

Looking at the variety of exponential, parabolic, conical, tractrix, hyperbolic and whatever ales horn profiles out there I was thinking that we probably incorrectly approach the entire subject of horn profile analyses.
We listen the horns and we fe...

Sure, it is a matter of personal preference but to my taste anything shiny of glossy should not be used in horn or in audio… unless you are French of course :-) As far as I concern everything should be absolutely black, completely not glittery,...

Ming, how are you doing? What I mean: how it your bass horn projects doing? We interacted in November and as I understand your horns is few month old nowadays. As now, your initial euphoria about the Goto bass and Goto horn should be gone and you sho...

Ok, here is another subject. I feel that I kind of screw it up as I did not foresee it in my planning. What I need is to add some decupling devised to my horn in the location where it will be mounted to the surface of the house frame. The horn will ...
|

You can improve the vibration decoupling by lessening the weight on the horn mouth edge.
There is no need for the edge of the horn mouth to bear a great deal of the weight of the heavy end of the horn, although that seems your current plan. Th...

[quote user="RF at Ona"] Congratulations on the construction and installation of your horns. May your pleasure at the results reward your effort and expense. I find their installed appearance even more geometrically striking than anticipated and I su...

There is nothing as funny in internet high-end audio as learning about silliness of horn people. I have a huge collection images with different horn installations, one more silly the other, but any day brings the new pearls…

Up to the first fold the horn is somewhat conical as seen in post #1 picture.This picture shows the exit w/ additional angle wall (making for "corner" loading).This has a greater (uncalculated) flare something like a compound CD horn.Resonant F unkno...

Yes, it turned out to be the emails from GOTO importer. I am not completely understood if the horn at the picture above is an official GOTO product. The Ming Su said that the horn was build locally by Jeffrey Jackson with the support of GOTO but then...

I'm very inexperienced but I still try to observe things around me carefully. Here's what I'm getting at what can be potentially pretty good.. Well, all I can really say is I've been mostly interested in the design implementations of companies such a...
