[quote user="msaudio"]Putting The Mid Bass horns behind your head will not work. This thread was about Mid Bass Horns Project, do you thank you will be able to use any frequency above 80 cycles with rear fired horns that are behind your head? Tha...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] Resonant frequency :
I did not try to measure it. Can anyone confirm the following : I assume this parameter is most easily determined by playing a series of tones at constant signal strength (volume setting) whi...

[quote user="pe1mmk"]Well Cat you can call me whatever you like, but you still did not answer my question. Both have a horn for highs, for mids and for lows, only the sub lows are handled differently. [/quote]
I do not think I called you with names...

Come on, Dominik, no one cares about the LeCleach for bass. You might consider slower opening profile: like exponential of hyperbolic. Exponential will give you a bit more horn gain at bottom and hyperbolic will give you even more gain. Hyperbolic wo...

[quote user="skushino"] I think you are saying the effects of my room may be dominating any problems with the Edgarhorn bass, or at least I can't know since I don't have any objective data. Is this correct?
Maybe you're right. But here is wh...

Kodomo,
A brief post about concerns. Feel free to discard it.
LF modules – are you sure that you want to go with ported
solution? You can model your boxes and use any good drivers but sonically with
port you will end up with bass that would h...

I've been thinking about how I am going to wire these Bass Cannons as well as the horns on the horn stack. For some time now I have preferred ribbon/foil speaker cables for the relatively low sensitivity speakers I have been using. The reason I bel...

[quote user="noviygera"]
For me personally, midbass is the most important frequency range when it comes to sound reproduction. I believe you will be on the right track to focus on this range because so often it is overlooked and treated with super...

[quote user="Kcct82"]I didn't use John Hasquin's tapped horn design, I modeled my own in hornresp for my TAD woofer. I knew I would only need it up to ~55Hz so I was happy to have it flat from 23Hz-70Hz. The lowest crossover point for Behringer DCX 2...

Truly unexplored in the field of bass horns. There are zillion of new composite of syntactic light and very rigid material out there that might be a good candidates for building horns. People nowadays learned how to make good performing carbon fiber ...

Romy's quotes in blue:Daniel J. Plach's quote in green:"...The back chamber mechanism is good. Are you planning to do the same in the midbass horn?..."Yes, it will be similar, but more robust; I have an idea for a locking-type seal, which I would pro...

Here is the update as recommended by RomyTheCat, the listening position is about 4 m from the upper-bass (I think it may work depending on how the >50 Hz mouth end up) and I also become creative with the bar. :-)Do someone eventually know what wou...

Romy,

Johan, I understand what you are saying. This is kind of James’ barn thread and if you do not mind can you share with him one thing, I think that many others, including me, would be interested to learn the answer to this question: What did you gain g...

I have no experience with bass horns, but I suppose that any sound source into a given size room can excite its modes, hence a big bass horn or a line array of boxed woofers can be equally annoying in that regard. So if the idea of using horns is to ...

Roman,In one of the recent posts you mentioned that you've found an acceptable solution for delay of bass, mid-bass horns .Is it only conceptual or you have something practical ? I'd like to add mid-bass channel to my Klipshorn bass-bins to take them...

Sorry my post did sound like marketing speil, don't know much about the Cessaro bass horns, I believe they are a back loaded, 8 bass units with the Gamma four with the Beta, I will try and educate myself further and report back when I have heard the...

[quote user="msaudio"]Your Typical Acoustical Suspension-type Loudspeaker enclosure witch has less then 90 db at 1 watt does not belong with a horn system that starts at 110db at 1 watt, even when you ad more then 1 driver, it is still way to far...

Actually nothing happens. I pretty much discard any conversation about different radiation patterns for channels as if the Macondo Axioms are pur...

A visitor of my site sent me email with following:
“I take it you don't like the Rogero style (or Johan Dreyer) bass horns with wings, but you could add compression to a similar setup and make it work properly. I have made several design...

Ok, I have been experimenting with placement : Long wall versus short wall. Though the frames have wheels and roll very easily, my room is cursed with an elevated platform smack in the middle of everything (about 14 inches higher than the main floor)...

Hi Romy and othersI am in the initial stage of planning a new home, which will have a dedicated music room. I noticed Romy in another thread you were impressed with the rough stone walling. This looks like a great way to disperse reflections. What I ...

Bill, the result you or anybody else gets with resonating surface of the horn if NOT what I was talking about. You and Jessie recognized in what I was saying some specific problems of your horn but those problem are from very different reason. The t...
