I'm very inexperienced but I still try to observe things around me carefully. Here's what I'm getting at what can be potentially pretty good.. Well, all I can really say is I've been mostly interested in the design implementations of companies such a...

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...

[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...

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...

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.

"Then there are flutter echo like bathroom sounds that horns also sometime produce, especially if they have a glossy surface."What I meant was that the glossy surface causes a effect that is like or resembles the hard fluttery sound...

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...

hello everybody
I am interrested by manufacturing this type of multicellular horn and I would like to know who you would parmit the worksheet for this type of cab [url=http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=1172&u=11328848][img]http://i55.ser...

I was pitching before that to make a loudspeaker with integrated LF module you have no ethical right to charge more then let say $20K retail. If you charge more then you have no mechanism to deliver anything for the money people pay. However, if you...

Hi Romy, As a recent convert to horn-speakers I have greatly enjoyed trawling through your website and I have learnt plenty not only about horns but also about questioning my own motives and the desired end result of a possible "from scratch" spe...

[quote user="jeff1225"]Yes Rommy I agree with most of your comments above. What I found interesting in the larger installation was the time alignment and the bass implementation. I do disagree with your statement of not stopping by to see the Hornfab...

I understand all disadvantages going digital.
I strongly believe that minimal influence to the signal is the most important aspect.
And influences in digital domain are usually terrible.
But I'm not sure what other options available....

user="kodomo"]I don't think you can align the tapped horn. My tapped
horn has a total length around 5 metres. To time align that with my other drivers,
its got to be around 5 metres closer than others. The only other solution is
delaying t...

[quote user="Paul S"]Mura, it sure seems like a good 12" driver would be OK above 300 Hz. So, what's up?
Best regards,
Paul S[/quote]I'm not sure that it is driver issue. May be 42hz horn equalization is effective only in 70-300 range.Real measure...

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...

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...

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 ...

Up to the first fold the horn is somewhat conical as seen in post #1 picture.This picture shows the exit w/ additional angle wall (making for "corner" loading).This has a greater (uncalculated) flare something like a compound CD horn.Resonant F unkno...
