Post Subject: Stupid or not - the sound remains the same - just bad soundPosted by haralanov on: 6/29/2010

Moreart, believe me or not, but I perfectly understand your constructions – they are nothing more than a simple reflection of your own way of thinking about audio and sound - just a pile of glued wooden panels without any audio based motivation behind it. Do you want to achieve specific sound out of your horns or you just try different methods to see what will happen? Following your logic and complete absence of any audio motivations, you may tattoo a middle finger on the whizzer cone of your drivers, telling everyone they sound much more better. Back loaded "horns" like these has sound signature which cannot be mistaken even if you listen them at the next room with your back pointing to them. All of the music sound exactly the same in the zone of mid and upperbass and after 15 minutes of listening it becomes very very boring. You insist the Moon is made of chocolate, but it doesn't change nothing - these constructions will never sound like properly made horn. I do not understand people like you which are looking for agreement but they are not able to handle some critics. You are not the first who react this way and of course you will not be the last. Post your projects at diyaudio.com , show them the measurements and everyone will tell you the words you want to hear. Good luck.
