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 will need something that goes down to 30hz. My point is your new house will have all those horns in your audio room, then it will look trashy and it will not look like a living room anymore. I would like to see someone build a horn system fire threw the floor so it don't clutter your room. I donot know what kind of basement you have, but think about every option before you start building the horns. When i built mine i used 8in throats with altec 515B woofers. I like cloth surrounds or paper and stiff cones with 35 hz res or lower and at least 98 db at 1 watt output. About closed rear chamber you will not be able to adjust low res. I built mine like a corner enclosure with a bottom firing port that goes out threw the front with the horn flare, you can adjust low res this way and it sounds much better. Donot build the voice of theater style they are the worst box sounding crap. Preaching horn religion MSAUDIORerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
