Ah yes that was the thread. You mentioned that the lowther was used too low on the hørning because a lowther could not honestly be used for a midbass. What i was thinking is that due to its design and retarded power to weight ratio it could be p...

Romy, do you think there is enough of a chance Fane's new studio 5 incher (http://www.fane-acoustics.com/pdfs/Studio_5M.pdf) could be driven down far enough to be worth trying out for an upper midbass horn (120Hz)? ...

[quote user="mjloudspeaker"]
My idea is a upright horn like your "midbass hanging thing", at 200 hz for the smaller size of it, and this will be my work for 2009/10. What I would like is exponential curve, not tractrix horn, something like this one...

BTW, it will be funny if I learn that I like the Macondo’s bass better with the “help” of the MiniMe’s ports. The 95Hz is VERY special region for Macondo as the Macondo’s upperbass horn and the Macondo’s bass sections bo...

As I said I do not truly have any audio Christmas List. If I move I will build my midbass horn but with all honesty if I move and will not go for midbass horn then it will be little difference. With my current understanding of sounds I am very co...

[quote user="rdrysdale"]Our bass driver has a 12v field coil motor, it developes just over 20 kilogauss flux density using a low carbon steel pole piece. The exit diameter is 4 inches at the moment. The diaphragm is 6 inches in diameter and made of a...

Adrian,
You pretty much said it but do not think that what you said it minor – it is in fact huge, with exception of some rough lathe-work: it is not exactly true but if it was true then it would be irrelevant to Sound.
I really do not know wha...

I am reading through those interesting threads.
I have just won a pair of S2 on ebay so I am interested in horns for them. I have fired an email to Vitavox Peter and I will get his diaphragms. Since my drivers are in UK, maybe he ...

thanks I have a few questions to ask if you do not mind:
1) Did you experiment with surface of the horns and a negative contribution of smooth surface to Sound?Smooth surface are fine don't waste my time on a trival matters.

This is very interesting subject.
I expect that tghe new Midbass horns will have somewhere 108dB sensitively anechoicly. The driver is 99dB and the hyperbolic curve has much more EQ then Tractrix and that is more important the EQ that work mu...

Noviygera, yes to a degree a short midbass horns is not really
a horn but some sort of waveguide or
bounce-horn. A horn described, if to drop all crap out, by volume of LF equalization

Similar to the famous sexist tail that women can be only ether pretty or smart the midbass horns unfortunately behave in the very same way: they can be only nicely placed in a room or they can sound good. You want the horn to place in a specific ...
