Here's a pic (link) of my listening position.When I built my large Bill Fitzmaurice bass horn...I had thought about placing it in that space above the speakers, firing into the corner. I may still do that...but the sub is serving duties in the separa...

With the height, I plan to have the mid horn set around 1200mm with tweeter below, eg 900mm.
These will reside on a timber or metal stand I'll fabrecate miself.
What are some important considerations here?

If you read Danleys paper, you see that the lower you go in frequency, the more this device turns into a direct radiator. He just vents the HF drivers from the throat, more or less optimised, the midrange drivers a bit further out and the LF drivers ...

Bass horn sub now fitted underneath, with false shelf added for the righ hand side mid bass horn.
The extra height is good....90cm to floor for tweeter, 110cm for the mid horn.

I've had a long-time desire to replace my Edgar 80hz midbass shells with a better performing solution. My Edgarhorns arrived in 2005, and I made incremental improvements over the years until now they have little in common with the original Edgarhorn...

It is not the thread to talk about Tapped Horn but listening to what you Tapped Horn users saying I do understand my suspicions about the concept. I can’t objectively judge sound from Tapped Horn as I did not hear any properly made, calibrated and in...

The KOSS Electrostatic unit was still installed , so I removed and checked resonance .The resonance was 136 HZ. I then tested it in horn assembly and the result was the same : 136...

[quote user="RF at Ona"] Personally, I think it debatable whether the mouth edge should be free or attached as there are desirable aspects to both approaches. If attached, it need not be attached with great pressure. [/quote] Robert, can you elaborat...

OK, on Monday my carpenter will do all necessary work to fine align the horns, to tight and to solidify what need to be. The framework with horn will be over and on Tuesday he will cover the things with sheetrock (drywall) and begin to apply the fin...

what you did in your horn : you coupled your horn and you added mass on cone. then imagine when the cone tried to make an impulse it moves forward and then in back chamber something stops it from moving(air pressure+-) your driver had been stopped fr...

I was thinking and fantasizing about finishing of my midbass horn. My first idea was to paint it internally with the same color as my cathedral room. Perhaps a lighter grade of paint in the end as the horn goes dark. As the only mouths of the horns w...

I spent today couple hours to walk around my fist mouth. It is juts test-jointed with screws, not glue yet and it responses horribly to knocking. We put a few 2x4 brasses and frames. It looks like it will be 8” between the 2x4 and it will become some...

You might want to try covering a section of plywood with the modified cement/mortar recipe as a test before you write it off as too difficult or too expensive. Basically, it does pretty much what you ask, and it need not be 2" thick, either; 1/2" or...

[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...
