Ok, Andrew, this is allergy something. I would highly advise you in future before you post any discrete updates, questions, and ideas about what you to inform about the holistic objective of your project, sort of a view from 50.000 feet...

My COVID-19 brain fog has finally lifted. I have been using HORNRESP as the gold standard for horn design. Upon reflection I forgot that we ultimately listen to the sound produced and not the beautiful computer simulated SPL profile. So I ...

OK, this dose make some since, become I understood you that it droops after 300Hz.
I wonder what made you to select the 300Hz as a crossover point – the currently existing...

Murat,
I am not qualified to talk credibly
about Tapped Horns. I know that they get a lot of traction now around audio
people but I am, without listening a good example of it, am not so warm to the Tapped
Horn idea. The comments of yours that y...

[quote user="haralanov"] Romy, the actual sound benefit of this 4-channel upper bass configuration, is rather in the type of sound presentation. The commonly used single upper bass horn (or direct radiator) sitting under the midrange horn, gives the ...

...this interesting point has no practical answer. First of all in the case of Rakesh horn what N-Set proposed is not necessary. Those 115Hz Hasqiun-style horns that Rakesh emulates are well dumped with own mass and own ...

That was the 4 way system designed by John Sheerin using GOTO drivers on my request. The tweeter is GOTO 160 with S3000 horn xover at 5kHz. The high mid is GOTO SG370DX with S600 horn xover at 1kHz-5kHz. The low mid is GOTO 505TT with S150 hor...

I note English Mfgrs tried low power ribbon Midrange horns in the 50's (Decca, Kelly & Quad also made one!).These were probably inspired by the hi pwr prewar? Klangfilm ribbon horn (would like to hear one of those!) But, after Peter Walker moved ...

I find that one of the most interning and stimulating ideas that you expressed was your experience with your bass horn

[quote user="ayebee"]If you look at the original Bionor drawings (you can find them at klangfilm.free.fr) you see that the "bass" horn is actually made out of two sections, the outer is curved, the inner is conical and expand both horizontally and la...

You said are lucky to get hornloading down to 150Hz. Then I guess you suggest you will end up at maybe 175Hz. Hornloading a compression driver down to 175Hz is not too difficult and the horn will not be larger than the Avantgarde Trio midbass horn, a...

There is a new company out there that makes horn-loaded acoustic system. I know a guy who is involved, I presume he is the owner or one of the owners, but I know very little about the design and the sound of the Sadurni Acoustics. So, let see wha...

Hello Romy, thanks for your guide.I've been thinking and I feel that some basic upper bass channel ideas are forming; they a result of, as you say ,"organic" derivation from the rest of my acoustic system. I am pretty excited about this idea i have. ...

Romy, thank you very much for very detailed explanation of your horn theory.Let me present some doubts about it. From physics basics when we have more than one springs (suspension, throat resistance, back chamber) we can consider it as one spring. Th...

I dont want to hack this thread into TH, I tried them with sub-amps 150 watts and they didnt sound good, but I was using a passive preamp, when I added an active preamp things started to get better, now with 12 watts and a a lot of gain, bass is ama...

[quote user="Horn Savant"] I think it's about the same as free-air resonance - backwave to entire basement. Precedent: pre-war theatre horns(open rear like Shearer/ERPI)(unlike post-war reflex tuned designs like Altec A4)(I don't like reflex boxes - ...

I have also noticed this in the past, But i could not say it was from the the Mid bass driver or horn. I was trying out a amp at a friends house with his system and i had this bass softness and i thought it was his speakers but we tryed his own amp a...

At Romy's suggestion I've created a new thread for this. I have been thinking about what sort of bass solution to use with the S2. I was hoping to be able to get the S2 low enough (c. 300Hz) to make this a bit easier, but it seem that onl...

Though he seems to like running several TTs in parallel, I do not interpret Pham's page to show that he is running more than just one horn system; what I see is an evolution of a system. It looks like, in its latest iteration (under the heading "Syst...

Hi Jeff,I am certain that the best midbass was NEVER in a corner horn. Every fold in the horn is a new resonance. Corner horns need many folds...In addition, if you are very "anal retentive" about phase alignment - how do you integrate a corner horn?...

John Inlow uses exponential and tractrix profile horns in his current system. So I don't know what you are trying to say negatively when it comes to "mixing" exponential and tractrix horns. Second, after reading Jorge from Austin TX response I...

I'm giving myself high fives today for nearly solving the broken piano sound in the room. :-)I'm not sure what fixed it, but I believe it to be a shelf half filled with records + two sofas and a carpet.There is room for improvement but it is a g...

Ming, how are you doing? What I mean: how it your bass horn projects doing? We interacted in November and as I understand your horns is few month old nowadays. As now, your initial euphoria about the Goto bass and Goto horn should be gone and you sho...
