Post Subject: Who builds horns: The Azurahorn from AustraliaPosted by Romy the Cat on: 3/29/2007

As I learned today the Australian Martin seddon know as the Azurahorn Guy has a web site and he also does horns:

From Martin’s site:

Azurahorn is best described as a long term audio project, funded by occasional horn sales.  I developed a method of making accurate moulds, without expensive tooling, in order to explore the Le Cléac’h expansion in a variety of different set ups.  I now have moulds to make a range of fibreglass horns, for Full Range Lowther type drivers, and for Compression Drivers.

All secrets are here revealed, so you can set up you own horn factory if you wish.  Or you can order from me, and spend the time you save listening to music.

The following flare rates, in a range of throat sizes, are available:  160Hz, 204Hz, 340Hz and 550Hz. Plans and sections are provided for 50Hz  ‘Push-pull’ horns, or stand-alone Bass Horns.
Le Cléac’h horns create natural sounding music, with a deep involving sound stage.  This is a common finding reported by many users across the range.

I would like to thank Jean-Michel Le Cléac’h for his beautiful curve, given freely to all – and the brave experimenters who kept me going with their encouragement, orders, and commissions.
