Hi Gera"Has anyone done this and what were the observations of comparing different topologies."I have done just what you propose, I tried the JBL2490 compresion driver with a 3" mouth in a 110 hz horn well made, MDF round tactrix horn, it goes ...

Guest napping now from 16 hrs jet lag, so I have a moment...Jorge, you raise an interesting point about THs. I may be incorrect in assuming THs sound worse as they play higher in freq. Perhaps instead the limitation is one of narrow bandwidth rathe...

@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...

This is called a macro photography rail. It is a very precise tool. You have 1 mm units on it. The ones I have found cost around 70usd each which is good. Seller says it is sturdy enough and can handle weight. It can not handle the weight of the horn...

I thought this there have depicted the ugliest horns but I

Murat,
I am not qualified to talk credibly
about Tapped Horns. I know that they get a lot of traction now around audio
people but I am, without listening a good example of it, am not so warm to the Tapped
Horn idea. The comments of yours that y...

I would like to share my 5-way horn project.
The idea was to have full range system, so the first horn built was Tapped Horn.
I got design from Volvotreter.de and was really impressed with performance of this monster.

I am using sealed bass arrays of 3 per side. I have six 10" scanspeak woofers in total. I aim to operate them from 38hz to 160hz with qtc 0.707I also have a tapped horn that I am using with my current horn system. It is 244cm's high and 125kg's compl...

I did some experiments today again with GOTO in my existing horn and it is obvious for me that I need different horn for GOTO.Existing horn was modelled and designed for Supravox and I see perfect curve with it.But GOTO in it shows same curve for 50-...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The Supravox was
12” the Goto 4” how did you convert one into another? You would need a 3-4 feet
adopter to do so.[/quote]I used GOTO's converter from dual 4" to aprox 200sq sm2 throat. It is still 2 times smaller than ex...

Hi there
I can see Romy's face when he's trying to figure out Martin's time alignment strategy;0) I have Martin's 204 Hz horn with Fostex 208 E Sig. These horns are to be big to properly integrate with anything. They are OK with Fostex Lowther drive...

Jessie, 45Hz horn with 6”-7” throat around AK151 driver is from my perspective is the best thing might be theoretically built around a cone driver. I really envy of you and if I had room I would unquestionably go for it; this is why I keep a pair of ...

There is a US company “Acoustic Horn Company” somewhere in ... , that makes, as I understand, only metal conical horns. The company, owner Bill Woods presents his motto as “Horns based on the quality and lost engineering of the past”. I al...

This makes a lot more of sense to me. I understood you wrongly and I believed that the product "as is" and a priori can be interesting as a whole. I think that the design is interesting for the horn implementation, the horn themselves (look quite sol...

Hi James,Just so you know about these folks. go to this site and page down for a bit till you find the horn installation topic. http://www.royaldevice.com/custom3.htmRather interesting and might be all of the mistakes you can make in one place, ...

I meant the upper end of the LF horn response. Firing it downwards at the floor as they do and then expecting good performance at 200-300Hz in the listening position is a tall order. There may also be some confusion where the mid horn takes over.I'v...
