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
was wrong. Here is a new phenomenal addition the Nutcracker horn. Even Nutcracker is not sticky Russian character

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.

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 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...

Yes, although the typical cork sheets might be too smooth and hard to apply. However if you were to crush the cork into granules... then apply to the horn, that should be feasible. Can you tell us anything about the picture you just posted? It doesn'...

[quote user="noviygera"]Number one, that I'd like to run by you guys due to it's simpler nature and closer to reality execution is the idea I have been thinking about. No first hand experience with any of this.Say we use something like altec 1505b mu...

Gera, is this an idea you're familiar with from a sonic standpoint? The horns are supposed to boost lower frequencies within their pass bands without adding their own sound, or - more realistically - allowing for their own minimal contribution to th...

First off, let me say Hello to all fellow Audiophiles!

Romy,When you say that the Vitavox 15" was the best midbass you heard, was it in a Vitavox corner horn? I'm think about acquiring or building a pair of Vitavox corner horns as I have a perfect room for them. ...

I suspect that the 8" and 5" cones and 1" compression driver are in the Danley Signature Synergy multiple entry horn. This creates a physically phase aligned point source above 45 Hz and probably a bunch of diffraction. The double 15" woofers are an ...

Thanks, Robin I do not drink and the wine/beer cultural cult is a bit above me. I still do appreciate however a good moldy and decadent décor of wine cellar but unfortunately it would be very different for the style of the listening room that I am ha...

I heard a friend's horn system recently and was very impressed. I don't have the resources to put together a diy system as discussed here, amazing as they seem, but am looking for recommendations for commercially available finished horn speakers that...

Brass instruments function much differently than audio horns. First of all they are built extremely resonant by mismatching length and horn taper. The taper of the bell is there not for horn type efficiency, rather to change the acoustical length of ...

Paul,I have not heard the synergy horn or any speaker with that design. Here is what I am talking about:http://www.yorkville.com/images/products/u15_cut_sm.jpgIn this particular case there are 3 mids and 1 tweeter driver sharing the same horn.This so...

[quote user="noviygera"] I am NOT talking about single wideband drivers or any back loaded type horns. I am talking about properly made front loaded horns. For example, the Danley Synergy horns, that use single horn with multiple drivers to cover a w...
