Romy,

Is there a consistent effect from too large/too small and how is it analyzed? 

 Working on a new horn that I had turned by a fellow in Hungary and have made my back chamber so that I can easily
 manipulate the volume but have no idea of what to expect.

 Knowing you have gone through the process a number of times I am hoping you will be willing to give me some guidance.

Audible clues? or does one need to rely on measurements to get in the range?
 I am still in the process of getting the thing ready so I have no idea what it sounds like at the moment.  Starting off with HORNRESPONSEcalculated value which is based on driver manufacturers specs instead of measuring for myself which probably makes the value next to useless.

 Using the B&C 12 inches driver as recommended by John Inlow.  Unobtainable drivers like your favored FANES would have been tried if ...
Yes, I am going with more of an EDGAR type set-up than A BESNOW set-up since that is the best I can do.  This round horn will replace my EDGAR 75 hz square hoen with the EV driver.
