Considering the conclusions of my recent experiences that I described in the following thread:http://www.GoodSoundClub.com/TreeItem.aspx?PostID=6876I would like to share some of my observation that the people who would g...

I understand that "nothing changed in the horn dimensions if you go from between 10" and 12" driver". You are referring to the horn mouth I assume. Do you have a idea what compression ratio is good to have for upper base horn? It seems that 2:1 is ta...

[quote user="oxric"]If it were me and I had that basement that could be made use of, I would seek to achieve what you have done with your mid-bass horns in the loft. I know that you considered and dismissed the tapped horn idea some time ago but ...

Today a guy I know from south coming to my listening room to hear my payback. He is mingling with horns, he heard my installation in city and he is very much interested to hear my new listening room and the most important my new midbass horn. He actu...

Hi Romy…and fellow audio nutters. I’ve bitten the bullet, and shifted from BLH to front-loaded. Yes, I was an idiot, a moron for not doing this sooner. My project is ‘humble’ by Romy’s standard…but I feel it meets the following objectives I h...

Is this type of driver not similar to those used in headphone?. Very high efficiency, wide bandwidth, very low XMAX. The lightest and fastest are probably the orthodynamic type like FOSTEX RP, HiFiMAN or Audeze LCD2....

Alright then synergy horns aside, what is inherently wrong with wideband horns? I can understand that there is bs implementations and explanations/marketing, but if we put to side CURRENT wideband driver limitations and only look at horn. If horn is ...
|
|
Well the thing about horns and wide band is that for them to go lower the horns needs to be longer, if the horn is longer the highs get lost inside it. The most famous and longer range horn is the WE 15A, but even that one doesnt do magic, some clai...

I think that Mr. Burwen has been at the cutting edge of horn technology longer than anyone else that I know. I am surprised that the search here did not bring up any hits.

"Then there are flutter echo like bathroom sounds that horns also sometime produce, especially if they have a glossy surface."What I meant was that the glossy surface causes a effect that is like or resembles the hard fluttery sound...

Actually a Tapped Horn would be bigger than a sealed enclosure, here is one of my first TH tests. The sound is very different than the sound coming form a Sealed encolsure. My first impression was that the bass was gone! There was no bass sensati...

hello everybody
I am interrested by manufacturing this type of multicellular horn and I would like to know who you would parmit the worksheet for this type of cab [url=http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=1172&u=11328848][img]http://i55.ser...

I was pitching before that to make a loudspeaker with integrated LF module you have no ethical right to charge more then let say $20K retail. If you charge more then you have no mechanism to deliver anything for the money people pay. However, if you...

Hi Romy, As a recent convert to horn-speakers I have greatly enjoyed trawling through your website and I have learnt plenty not only about horns but also about questioning my own motives and the desired end result of a possible "from scratch" spe...

[quote user="jeff1225"]Yes Rommy I agree with most of your comments above. What I found interesting in the larger installation was the time alignment and the bass implementation. I do disagree with your statement of not stopping by to see the Hornfab...

I understand all disadvantages going digital.
I strongly believe that minimal influence to the signal is the most important aspect.
And influences in digital domain are usually terrible.
But I'm not sure what other options available....

user="kodomo"]I don't think you can align the tapped horn. My tapped
horn has a total length around 5 metres. To time align that with my other drivers,
its got to be around 5 metres closer than others. The only other solution is
delaying t...

[quote user="Paul S"]Mura, it sure seems like a good 12" driver would be OK above 300 Hz. So, what's up?
Best regards,
Paul S[/quote]I'm not sure that it is driver issue. May be 42hz horn equalization is effective only in 70-300 range.Real measure...

Romy, thank you very much for very detailed explanation of your horn theory.Let me present some doubts about it. From physics basics when we have more than one springs (suspension, throat resistance, back chamber) we can consider it as one spring. Th...

Yes, when I move the drivers or for that matter if I move my listening position, I realign.What I hear and measure about the drivers relative distances to each other is this. When I first set up the drivers, one horn ended and the next one started, t...

Some folks from Australian audio site nominated my Macondo as the ugliest loudspeaker. I would disagree but my objective in this thread is not arguing about tastes but to talk a bit about reference points of judgments. It is irrelevant to me per...

I'm sure you've probably seen this before, but here is another example of shoe horning a large horn into a room.

[quote user="Morfeas"] Fs of the driver is measured at 32HZ matched for both channels. [/quote] Manolis, if you have 32HZ of loaded driver resonance and a large throat in such a short horn then I would propose that you have your 50HZ not from the loa...

Jessie-Good to hear from you. I am very motivated following your progress. Thanks for the inspiration.My room size is around 15' x 18' x 8'. At this point, I feel that a proper 60 - 70hz midbass horn is physically the largest I am realistically pr...
