Post Subject: A place for spotted speakersPosted by Bud on: 10/29/2007
Romy,
We have discussed apottted Compression Driver's before, and I would not commit to promising performance you would like. Howere, here is a place where spotted speakers might well answer your needs, without altering anything you are currently doing.
All cone drivers have ringing on their surfaces when used. This is a particular type of enrgy emission malfunction. It is the original signal, reflected and therefore reemitted, during the first few micro seconds of the original signals emission. A hall of mirrors effect would be a useful description.
I am pretty sure that if we eliminate this bogus, extra energy, your current horn will actually work properly for most of this extra octave you must currently use it for. I will actually even commit to promising you will like the results.
No treqtment to the horn should be needed.
