Yes, although the typical cork sheets might be too smooth and hard to apply. However if you were to crush the cork into granules... then apply to the horn, that should be feasible. Can you tell us anything about the picture you just posted? It doesn'...

Hi guysI just spotted something breathtaking yesterday:http://www.esdacoustics.com/ Ive been actually listening to it this weekend on the exhibition.Trying to sort my thoughts.I had many many hours of intense listening.Also plenty of time with the en...

[quote user="noviygera"]Number one, that I'd like to run by you guys due to it's simpler nature and closer to reality execution is the idea I have been thinking about. No first hand experience with any of this.Say we use something like altec 1505b mu...
|
Gera, is this an idea you're familiar with from a sonic standpoint? The horns are supposed to boost lower frequencies within their pass bands without adding their own sound, or - more realistically - allowing for their own minimal contribution to th...

First I want to say "Hello" to our host and to the other guests here.Sorry that I interfere here, but talking about PA inspiration and using PA parts in creative mode in dinning room, I can say that for about 15 years back I was starting my interest ...

First off, let me say Hello to all fellow Audiophiles!
I'm an audio-obsessed 29 year old currently living in the United States (Minnesota), and have spent years perfecting HIFI systems in vehicles, and over...

Romy,When you say that the Vitavox 15" was the best midbass you heard, was it in a Vitavox corner horn? I'm think about acquiring or building a pair of Vitavox corner horns as I have a perfect room for them. ...
|
I suspect that the 8" and 5" cones and 1" compression driver are in the Danley Signature Synergy multiple entry horn. This creates a physically phase aligned point source above 45 Hz and probably a bunch of diffraction. The double 15" woofers are an ...

...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 ...

Hi everyone,It is quite ironic that the day I hear from Fane telling me that the Fane 8Ms are finally ready, I should receive this update from my horn maker maestro. Russ Collinson of Layers of Beauty. Russ, if you ever read this here, please take a ...

The idea of trapped horn looks like get very popular among audio people. I have no position on the subject and I do not know if trapped horn is able to facilitate proper sound and if it drastically different from the sound of operated enclosures. I n...

The bottom eaters from AA raised an interesting subject:

If you are going to do something like this then it would make sense to have it firing backwards & make use of the corner of the room in the way Carfrae did some 15 years ago.[IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i318/murrayjohnson/big-horn.jpg[/...

As you can predict what I am going to say, those horns are the problem, not the GOTO driver.... Why will anyone buy GOTO driver and then not follow GOTO recommendation to use GOTO horn??? I don't think anyone buy a Lamborghini or Ferrari sport ...
|
This is a complex topic to setup a multi-horn system. What do you expect that something like this will come in a step-by-step instruction? It is years of effort to get it right. The discussion that we have here is wrong horn pair up with driver an...
|
It is hard to see from the picture but the inner walls of the horns are not parallel. In fact there are no two parallel surfaces in the horn – that was the requirement. Some when any kind of roll lays on the section 2 or 3 surface then it is expected...

A Greek company Arcadian Audio come up with own new horn-loaded loudspeaker.

... with Lowther-like single driver. I truly hate those tipe of speakers.
Anyhow, the Arcadian Au...

This is a very important question as since very beginning of the projects it was questionable if I would be able to get away with the back/top firing position of my midbass horn. So, as now, when the midbass horn project is over and horns fully i...

In Poland we have another young company which one start to build horns. On this moment they have only one model- 420hz tractrix, in near futhure there will by 150 hz. but they can build whatever You want in 3 weeks period. This 420hz is homogeneous r...

Hi Jessie:It is indeed a (t)horny dilemna whether to get rid of the midbass horns now, with a view to starting all over again and customise the new horns for your eventual new home in Detroit or ship them at unfortunately what will be a very substant...

It kind of said the Massachusetts is very much not “horny” state and there is not a lot of enthusiasts of horn loading live in Massachusetts or in the entire New England. If we New Englanders have the saturation of horn interest as high as California...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Tax,
do not go over yourself with “building paranoia”, looking for drivers, horns, boxes and etc. If you are looking for 80Hz to 200Hz range (you will need higher upper knee for AG Dou) then you do not need a bass d...
|
I meant the upper end of the LF horn response. Firing it downwards at the floor as they do and then expecting good performance at 200-300Hz in the listening position is a tall order. There may also be some confusion where the mid horn takes over.I'v...

Guys, does anyone has service documentation or pans with dimension for the bass section (cabinet) of Vitavox CN191?http://website.lineone.net/~empson/Sys191.html...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] Ok, I do officially like this “Battle Road” hours. Upon many considerations (and there are 4 ways to implement the midbass horn in that room) I have inclined to my leading idea to do it elegant and with time alignment....

As I understand the tapped horns have very small output whole, right? Here is a cool configuration for the folks who have suspended floors and would like to have a relatively large tapped horn do not take a lot of space in room – install the ta...
