In the Thread: Short midbass horns
Post Subject: It is all in the definitionPosted by rowuk on: 5/16/2019
The short horns like with the Altec are horns, but being too short and generally with a truncated mouth, they do not eq very much in the “midbass”, rather an octave or two higher. In that case, you might as well use direct radiators. The reason for a midbass horn is because the midbass is where large acoustic music has the most power requirement. Romy had the midbass horns in his last place, but seems to be getting along with his current large direct radiator solution too.
In my view, the La Grande Castine had a “manageable” mid bass and a very elegant alignment solution.Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
