The narrow portion of the midbass horn is surely begging to be inside a chimney, or a structure made to look like one, protruding through the roof. I am sure birds nesting on the back chamber will not impair its functionality, though it may be a pain...
|
With exception to the fact that I have no bass my new room did not give me a lot that I feel might be qualified as strange. I still do not know this room as good as I knew my old room but I will be there, it is a derivative of time. It is not tha...

Let's say we all have a midbass horn that plays down to 80Hz. I know some of us are special, so their midbass horn plays down to 40Hz. But still.What to do for the lower frequencies? Sealed or Infinite baffle (that's two good options). Now we need a ...
|
We should define some borders here; LF, when you have an UBH, should be from around 100 hz down to 30 hz, where the last fundamental tone of an instrument is played. ULF should be under 25-20hz.I would say that a driver playing 25-30 hz should...

Hi Romy,1) What dimensions for 1808 baffle would you suggest? 2) Is floor-firing vs. front-facing cone useful or preferred?I believe you wrote LF channels should be placed in arc outside midbass channels. 3) Any *general tips...

Oops sorry, I just re-read you post and you did said the “cub feet”. I read it as “sq feet”… so it came from it… If I have 12,000 square feet I would defiantly build a nice sleeping place for my Koshka inside a 50Hz midbass horn… That is one of the r...

[quote user="js"]Could anyone please advise me as to the recommended rear chamber volume for a Le C'leach horn with a throat of 240cm2, mouth of 7089cm2, length of 47cm, cutoff of 160Hz, T of 0.8? I'm thinking of using a Beyma 122Nd which has a sd o...

[quote user="msaudio"]Romy I see were you are going With this horn worship for midbass. It is the correct thing to do "But you still will not be happy with the outcome because it does no go low enough. You will not be happy with 60hz. Then you wil...

I was waked up this nigh with very load sound of thunder and lighting. The rain was gashing and I went close the left opened deck doors from last evening. Suddenly, totally out of blue, and idea come to me – why do not use the idea of Carlson Enclosu...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Ok, I do officially like this “Battle Road” hours. Upon many considerations (and there are 4 ways to implement the midbass horn in that room) I have inclined to my leading idea to do it elegant and with time alignment....
|
I'd guess that the only difference compared to the modern version of the K-Horn is a throat plate size of 6"x13" like in EV Georgian and use of ticker 3/4" plywood for enclosure. Myself, I settled on Klipschorn as a midbass solution 40hz to 100-150...
|
I've been thinking about trying the Klipsch Jubilee. The idea I have is to replace my bass channel (Aura 1808 in reflex box) together with midbass channel (Funktion One F115) with a single Klipsch Jubilee channel. Of course I'm talking about stereo p...
|
Romy,When you say that the Vitavox 15" was the best midbass you heard, was it in a Vitavox corner horn? I'm think about acquiring or building a pair of Vitavox corner horns as I have a perfect room for them. ...

It kind of said the Massachusetts is very much not “horny” state and there is not a lot of enthusiasts of horn loading live in Massachusetts or in the entire New England. If we New Englanders have the saturation of horn interest as high as California...

...this interesting point has no practical answer. First of all in the case of Rakesh horn what N-Set proposed is not necessary. Those 115Hz Hasqiun-style horns that Rakesh emulates are well dumped with own mass and own ...

But efficient (in terms of space usage) and radical.put woofers in the sides of flare of your attic horns, sort of like Danley Synergy horn, not near the throat but towards the mouth area, using the attic as the infinite baffle.But will the pressuriz...

I need to care just one octave at my 25Hz bump,I have tried the same solution in a big room, the thing is that we not only got output at 25 hz, but a lot also at 50 hz! There was no way surgically cut it to what we needed and the result was it messe...

There was some kind of hi-fi show in Gernany and it looks like Cessaro showed off a new version of Gamma. They look like change the frame. I really do not like what they look now. They look heavier with new frame and much less elegant. They looks lik...
|
Why can't you just stack them inserting new horn in between midbas and midhorn and keeping your original arrangement? Since your midbass sits on the floor, the tweeter still should be on resonable hight.I would transform your full range Melquiades fo...

[quote user="Jeffrey Jackson"] It seems that I do agree with you about the sound of compression driver midbass.. at least from what I have heard in my own room.. I have heard the big ALE drivers you mention on a bent steel horn similar to what ALE bu...
|
Do you even need a horn to run it at 5kHz? The acoustic transformation's probably done by the time the wave reaches the throat. Or is this more just to shape the rolloff below 5kHz? I once tried a hornless S2 as a tweeter; it was quite lovely but did...
|
Nice video. I was disappointed J.Jackson never got back to me after we discussed a custom midbass horn. Maybe he got carried away polishing that walnut ;)...
|
I did not see, thanks for pointing it out. As I said before Cessaro is
probably the most sensible company who makes horn loaded loudspeakers today and
I have comment on this Gamma model. This is a smaller version of Cessaro with new bass horn. It i...

Herman,
What you describe is fine. Over the course of last years I had a number of people who report identical things to what you do. Even if you change volume of back chamber and move resonance frequency then sound will change but it most lik...

Yesterday I performed the environmental inspection of the section of my attic that host the midbass horn. The section of the attic is well isolated from the rest of the attic. I have some temperature and humidity sensors in there, In addition I bough...

Hi romy,Have you had a look at the website recently (site address above in marco's mail), they have very detailed discussion of midbass horn with photos of phase-plug etc. unfortunately it may be only in french ...R Weissman...

of MTM arrangement of two TAD 1201 in <100 Hz Horn ? I assume they would both work in the same frequency range . Also JBL LE8 is only 89 db driver and it doesn't look like it can take any power . Difference in efficiency within the channels would ...

The horn are in the listening room, ready for final assembly, finishing and hopefully lifting up. My carpenter re-measured with laser rangefinder all key aspects of attic and gave me 80% that the horns will fit into the 3D space we designate for them...

[quote user="unicon"]Roman, first of all I feel good about your bass horn that's what i have always bin dreaming and if i get the space for it wont even waste a minute I think you already know it or using it ...You mentioned using a foam in back ch...
