identify the distance in-between the oiriface and the speaker. I am looking to
build something like famous Air motion ( Void) or the Orgon (martion)

Tequilahut, unfortunately I cannot
refer you to any literature how to build horn loaded Hifi System. It just does
not exists. Well, there are some more or less good books or articles about
horns but none of them convert methodological practice to convert you listening
objectives into a concrete horn-loaded loudspeaker. Some of the web sites, including
mine, and manufacturing houses who offer some guidance but in a large degree
the recommendations, practices and priorities are very different and you would need
to have a lot of own experience to be able to distinct the noise to anything
that is practical for you. It is not to mention that all people have attitude
and to a great degree it clouds this best intentions. This is very much applicable
to me. I for instance a “violent” supported of time-alignment for individual channels
and this is why I look in the direction of the Air Motion design with a disgust.
You might find some groups online that patronize
Air Motion or Orgon and they will be happy to give you some tips. Generally what
we all do is adopting all imaginable ideas out there, apply them, observe the result
and then navigate ourselves wherever it goes. With development of own acquired taste
we compose our own know-how. My experience with the field suggest that unless
you discovered the things yourself you do not truly understand it. It least it
is how it works for me. I am a very good carpenter for instance and everything I did worked well…. after second or third attempt.... |
