I'm wrapping up my horn building activities and have some leftover items available. 1) Edgarhorn 80Hz Mid-bass horns - Pick-up in Seattle - $350Condition - 8/10 based solely on age. No visible imperfections. They are in the identical condition as...

[quote user="noviygera"]My mid/upper horns play down to 190Hz. That is -- 188Hz is the Fs of the mid. It's a horn loaded a 10" Precision Device driver. So I need a section (or two sections) to cover the bottom (below 190hz). [/quote]
Herman, i...

[quote user="rdrysdale"] I mean that with a horn loaded compression driver, a strong motor, and a very light diaphragm, the attack and transients are more life like. Because the diaphragm can more precisely follow the recorded signal, the reproductio...

[quote user="Jeffrey Jackson"] so, my straight horns... I like them very much.. I built mine similar in style to what Greg B linked, but obviously much smaller.. mine are just under eight feet long (length of a sheet of plywood) and have a mouth roug...

The Morons™ at AA’s between selling to each other what they did not like and topping each other on their shoulders came up with a subject what horn installation would be if price would be no object. The question is semi-foolish as price is never ...

The first and the bigger thing that I like about them is that Anima is trying to use the vertical-horizontal configuration where the bell of the vertical horn serves as frame for horizontal channels. I love this idea and had a number of my own th...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I changed the new flash at my site to “Ok, the midbass horn project is successfully over. Over 3 months, over 400 posts, over 180 pictures… all publicly available…” The project started physically on July 16, 2010, ended...

[quote user="ulf"] Well, it was not really a surprise to us that the horn without the phase plug was dissapointing. Without the plug we had a horn that was a bit too short, had too large front cavity and less compression than we desired. [/quote]

Hi Anthony,
i took ground + 1 wall. Which gives quarter space. Some may say distance to second wall is way below quarter lambda, so you could even take octa-space. But my K-horn experiences (which is 8th sp. ca...

[quote user="skushino"] Edgarhorns weren't an obvious choice. Many horns never worked for me. The Avantgardes left me cold. So did the single-driver crowd (I just don't get it....), Altec VOTs, PA systems, etc. But there were some systems th...

Hi everybody, after reading RomytheCat's Macondo Setup I am very impressed ( phantastic music room ...) . Presently I have no working horns ( they are boxed), just questions. First, Romy describes his horns as spherical. La...

[quote user="drdna"] I know all the compromises involved with the EdgarHorns, I have heard them when I visited Bruce Edgar in Gardena, and they were pretty good compared to most of what is out there. I realized that I would likely never be able...

I would like to make a few comments about the entire idea of those expensive Japanese compression drivers: GOTO, ALE and alike. I have voiced the near-similar outlook about the irrational exuberance that some audio people express about electromagnet ...

[quote user="skushino"] Bottom exhaust.
Could keep it simple and fire straight down onto the floor. I think
there are benefits to adding a very robust floor platform beneath the mouth,
maybe with a reflector, similar to Bruce Edgar's Seismic Sub...

user="jackydai"]Romy, I’m disappointed to see you confront your own
belief just to win a debate. It is not my intention to convince you, but if
you, after all these years of research on horn flares, think that a twisted
flare rate at t...

The best midrange comes from compression drivers, it has that minuteness, transparency and dynamics that no other topology can offer; the main problem with them is that they only cover a very specific mid frequency ran...

All below is written by Thomas Dunker
Yeah, "sound consistent independent of signal level" is a very precise way to sum up my whole speaker philosophy. Anything that is assumed to be constant, but which actually changes with signal dynamics is what ...
