Post Subject: Some progress since the last timePosted by ulf on: 1/13/2023
Since I last posted there has been some progress to my indoor and my outdoor systems. Indoors I have added a pair of tapped subs. I must say that I am quite happy with these. Of course they are not as good as full size front loaded horns but still a lot better than vented or sealed subs that I have had or heard. I designed them for JBL 2220 but recenetly changed to 2227 which works even better in this application. They go down to 19Hz (-3dB) and manage to easily energize the room without the boominess of most vented speakers. Dynamically they match the rest of the system well. That's about all that has happened indoors.
Outdoor on the other hand there has been great progress. A bass horn has been built, active filters and amplifers have been installed. New mid-driver and tweeter. This was not done without problems but I overcame these and now this may be one of the best systems in the world (since most fine systems are placed indoors).
I will post some more info regarding building the bass horn and about my new mids and tweeters.
To be contined...
