A very good horns system.

I have absolutely no idea who's those people are, what they
do and from which countries they are but this picture that i've seen of their
installation is one of the very few examples when people demonstrate completely
rational thinking in terms of horn topology also that they have good ears and
good brains. Very smartly with design installation. I do not know if it is a commercial version
or home brew project but it's certainly look quite finished.
A very few commenters of critiques, minor critiques, just
forsake of the epistemology.
1)
I would probably cut the legs a little bit
shorter in order to have upper base horn to couple to the floor. It would pick
a few hirtz…
2)
In My first version of Macondo configuration, I
did try what they did, and I choose to keep mid-range horn under the Twitter. The
reason is because the tweeter dissipates more noise around itself and large
upper bass horn has more reflective surface.
3)
It feels like the upper horn slightly angled
down, obviously they did not do it. It has zero benefits but its creates
problem as it shrinks the listening spot to become much more narrow
4)
I wish they use smaller driver for midbase horn.
Is typical 130 Hertz 46 inch horn and they certainly have length to make it
longer. If they use less size off throat, then they will be able to use this 12
inch driver as a compression and they would have more dynamic range and more
low frequency equalization. At this point say probably have plus 2-3Dbs in The bottom knee of the mid base horn and
that Channel effectively acts as a direct radiator.
Still, I very much like what those guys have done.
