Sorry

Moron it is then...

Anyways, seeing the back chamber of my midbass horn, you would say that its way to big, no? And you would recommend me to proceed with a similar tuning process as you describe in this link?

http://audio-db.info/AudioDB/BazaPraktiki/Akustika/Rupory/LF/BackChambersTuning

If I go about this process and find myself a good resonans frequency. If I move the horn to another room I assume I will have to re do the task all over again?(I currently have the system at work, hence I dont have the place for it at home at the moment)

Do you think its even possible to make my midbass horn cover 100Hz to 500 Hz "horn loaded" when it has a fs at ~25Hz free air? Or did I chose wrong driver for this horn?

Regards
Marcus

It is very hard to say. You need to measure and to publish the resonance frequency of your loaded driver and view it in context of your installed horn. Be advised that your horn is shallow and it does not do sufficient EQ at horn cut off. So, you selection of final resonance frequency might be different.

This is a complicated question.  You can get any frequency from any horn and any driver, the question will be what kind sound will these frequency produce. Again, you need RTA, measure the resonance frequency and play with amp loading. If you would like to use my guide then it must not be subjectless.  I reject the  Hornrest as an evidence of any kind.
