In the Thread: Thoughts on midbass horn approach
Post Subject: OK.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 8/7/2018
Gera, if you would like to incorporate the Western Electric 13a with 555 then you need to make a decision how low you will drive it. You chose the 120Hz but it might not be useable frequency, it might be much higher in order to get “better” sound or it might be even lower, depends how you room will response. To match the midbass horn below 120Hz you do not need to know where 13a will die, any midbass horn will shoot to there. The time-align the midbass horn and 13a will be not so hard but to alight it all with higher frequency channels will be very hard, if even possible. The ides or using field coil driver and to adjust the Qt at midbass is very bad idea, sorry. Audio people always fantasize to use the field coil to “adjust something” but in reality it is not how it works. Also, when you mention a midbass horn below 120Hz then it means nothing. When you name midbass you need to state what it is, means: rate, size, driver, throat, profile.
