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...
|
Yep, a nice horn design. I like hos they have a mid-range to
have the similar footprint/size and a lower channel. I guess a mid-range runs ~60
to 800K, wonder what driver they use in there. The upper range horn in a
typical “clitoris position”, le...

I have identified a direction for my next speaker system. Whether it is a good one or not is a different topic -- I think it's a good one because I've lived with my current horn system for 10 years and have since developed an understanding of it's st...

Hi All,This is my 1st ever post, but extremely disappointed I never came across this site beforeHere is my current setup, for which I'm desperately seeking some help from fellow membersCabinet - Layered Birch Ply with curved sidesWoofers [93.67dB]- 2...

Hi Jeff,I am certain that the best midbass was NEVER in a corner horn. Every fold in the horn is a new resonance. Corner horns need many folds...In addition, if you are very "anal retentive" about phase alignment - how do you integrate a corner horn?...
|
You can improve the vibration decoupling by lessening the weight on the horn mouth edge.
There is no need for the edge of the horn mouth to bear a great deal of the weight of the heavy end of the horn, although that seems your current plan. Th...
|
Ok, can someone to explain why the horn has those wings?
...
|
Ok, here is another subject. I feel that I kind of screw it up as I did not foresee it in my planning. What I need is to add some decupling devised to my horn in the location where it will be mounted to the surface of the house frame. The horn will ...

I just wish before I start my project I read a few detail descriptions of the similar projects. Unfortunately they do not exist and I well understand that my project is in away an exemplary for the horn-minded people. All midbass horn are different a...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Yes, they are Fane 24” bass driver with 24Hz primary resonance. I am waiting for the final sound check; the final is long time away. I will be testing today different back chamber size and different drivers. I have a few Al...

[quote user="RF at Ona"] Congratulations on the construction and installation of your horns. May your pleasure at the results reward your effort and expense. I find their installed appearance even more geometrically striking than anticipated and I su...

No system ever resembles live music. imho. But you can get pretty close.Can you describe or share a pic of the horrid horns systems you have listened to?I also hate most badly designed "horn" systems too.Usually most "Horn" systems have a 15" woofe...

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...

Drawing of dual LF bass horn.Romy, here's a sketch of how I might be able to build the LF bass horns...per my post above.Regards....
|
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.

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...
