Revolution horns
fiogf49gjkf0d
I'm here in the middle of the Spanish revolution. In the brutal friday attack
in Barcelona (fuck the FC Barca!) the police has robbed, yes the police robs here, our speakers.
Would be lovely to have something like those Decibels to counteract their noise guns
(nota bene paid from our taxes) with music, music from Hildegard von Bingen to
Atari Teenage Riot.
BTW, anyone knows a simple PA horn design, something one
can easily make out of the plywood for the purpose of speaches?
Thanks,
N-set


Cheers,
Jarek

Dragan, also I am against some of the design ideas that you use for your acoustic systems but the level of craftsmanship  is attractive and your desire to undertake some less standard project doe looks appealing. Provide further information about cost, shipping options, materials, finishing and whatever else you would like to be know. BTW, the use of the bricks on their side as you did in here

http://www.beaconos.com/kraken.htm

was a ridiculously simple and very interesting idea.

Any horn
fiogf49gjkf0d
Romy, I use MDF primarily, plywood occasionally and solid wood if I am forced to.
Round horns are precision CNC made within +/- 50 microns.
However, during sanding and finishing process the accuracy is somewhat spoiled.
The final accuracy is +0.05 / -0.5 mm, for smaller horns even better.
Rectangular bass horns are somewhere between +1/-1 mm.
I believe that, I have never actually measured the accuracy :-)

some of the prices:
Kraken 100hz le cleac'h rectangular for two 8" drivers, throat driver dependent
raw MDF 600 euro pair
veneered and painted 1000 euro

Kraken 33hz spiral hypex horn t=0.7 for 10" driver, throat driver dependent, length 280cm, mouth 2645 cm2
raw MDF 1500 euro pair, that is for one channel
veneered and painted 2500 euro

round tractrix 1"throat MDF sanded and base paint coated
180Hz - 900e   200 - 700e
250 - 500e
400 - 250e
550 - 180e

round le cleac'h T=0.7 1"throat MDF sanded and base paint coated
180Hz - 2000e
200 - 1800e
250 - 1200e
400 - 600e
550 - 400e
or any other horn expansion
plus packaging and shipping

I am opening a new cabinetry division abroad. I don't know if I am going to be able to produce any of the loudspeakers in the next couple of months, but i am willing to talk about it, very much.

I wonder…

I wonder if you make any loudspeakers that can play classical music.
