Post Subject: Time alignment of THPosted by kodomo on: 9/11/2015

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 the rest of the channels...
If you are going to cross it around 30z, I don't know if alignment will create much of a difference. I am building my 5 way down to 38hz flat and have the tapped horn as a 6th channel. I will report to you about my experience of the sound. However I won't be aligning my 6th channel and actually won't be using it on music. My idea is to use it on movies only...
I have also changed my bass array from 12" scanspeaks to 16" TAD 1601b's. Rather than having 3 on each side, I will have 2 on each side and still with better efficiency and response.
