[quote user="Murataltuev"] Now it is
clear! Thank you, Romy!Today I auditioned and measured GOTO with closed hole in
back chamber. Mid-bass completely disappeared!
With closed back chamber it works efficiently
only from 200Hz! So, I'm going to tr...

Midbass from horn in
small room can be hugely benefited if it bounces but to make the
assembly of horns visually pleasant, time aligned and functional at the
same time is a big question. I do like the notion of Midbass fires t...

Robert, what I meant is following: when you will be collecting requirements for you own drivers specification and will evaluate the implementation methods then you need to have you own identity what you are trying to do. I might post a lot of differe...

[quote user="Saturntube"]Similar experience but I get to keep my "old" room. I have just changed my 5 way horn loaded down to 140 hz speakers to a friends room twice as big as mine, with an open back area into the house as your new room has and o...

Would not a 9ft-11ft long bass horn path (tapped horn or any horns) cause a sonic problem if not physically time aligned with the upper bass or mid bass channel? The only way to fix that would be to place the bass horn 9-11ft closer TO YOU than other...

Thanks Romy,I was hoping to hear that you remain happy with your midbass solution and was surprised at the time about the small cabinets that you used for the Vitavox 15"ers, but having measured T/S parameters of the drivers here I can see that indee...

I think what I gained from the basshorns were 1. "Speed"or lack of momentum.Specifically deep notes on piano.The sensation of that leftmost keys with the initial impact then followed by the resonance from the instrument as separate entities.I...

on used market from time to time and also were made by speakerlab and yes I only thought of bass bins nothing else. Why misaligned?Your old straight mid-bass in the wall speakers were not misaligned and K horns positioned right may fall into perfect...

We have two models with different upper bass horns, one is indeed a 140hz horn (77 cm diameter) and the original, bigger horn at 110 hz (92 cm diameter) Both tactrix both made from the same materials (MDF) and finished in the same automotive finish.T...

Romy, i hope this post doesn't offend your sensibilities. I am not gonna say a word about the physics principles that have led me to the conclusion that this is something that should be tried ( unless you ask of course ).
The idea i have is...

I would like to suggest an alternative factor or explanation to your recent ULF/midbass findings.When you were chronicling the design and implementation of your midbass horns I was curious as to the effect of the very close placement of the two h...

Final exit ~ 1M x 2M crn loaded (yielding 1/4 given mouth cut-off frequency)With 416's bass can be devastatingly spectacular !The general public have no concept of the efficacy of large bass horns...

[quote user="TonyB"]Romy, what are horn flare frequencies of your horns? I understand that both are Tractrix. My guess is that the midbass is 125Hz with a sealed rear chamber and 4" throat. Correct? [/quote]They tunes for 115Hz and pushed in room dow...

All below is written by Thomas Dunker
Yeah, "sound consistent independent of signal level" is a very precise way to sum up my whole speaker philosophy. Anything that is assumed to be constant, but which actually changes with signal dynamics is what ...

I guess you cannot say you listened to a horn system if you dont have an upper bass horn.The upper bass horn has to fill in the response from the compression driver down. At this delicate range nothing will perfectly macth it but another front horn. ...

OK, this morning I tuned the playback and did some listing, trying to understand what was the problem. Sound was not just bad but it was very strange, it was almost as a mechanical replica of sound. I took my phase meter trying to set horns in ph...

I would like to expose what my intentions are what I was tiling above about Goto 555 or a similar 200Hz driver. My S2 does not stress the bottom of my 183Hz horn. My multi-cell is expositional and those types of horns do pick honk very aggressively ...

Sounds Very interesting, If you can change the loose insulation in there for Cellulose, it is supposedly much better sound wise than fiberglass. It would also help to avoid leakage of bass to other parts of the house through the attic, if that is p...

[quote user="Murataltuev"]Is any
technical background behind the statement that 4" driver can't
operate in 300-1000Hz because resonance is too low ? [/quote]
Well, you need to define what does it mean “can't operate”? Anything can operate anywhere...

I may have a point on this

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] To my huge surprise and pleasure my midbass horn has absolutely no honk. I heard bass honk in ANY, even the best midbass horns that I heard (BTW, some honk does not bothers me and I even consider it desirable). [/quote] T...

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. ...

[quote user="pe1mmk"]Well Cat you can call me whatever you like, but you still did not answer my question. Both have a horn for highs, for mids and for lows, only the sub lows are handled differently. [/quote]
I do not think I called you with names...

Sure, Romy. The commercial product has both midrange and tweeter horns inside the mouth. My plan is to use the bass horn on it's own, as a dedicated bass channel. The plan appeals to me because there are no folds, among other reasons. The expansio...

Well, my experience indicates that if in the installation of this topology people chose to use 4th order crossovers then they play crappy pop music on their audio. To play pop music within playback and to have pop interests in music is certainly not ...

Hi Romy,Outside of the already constructed bass towers, is there a reason you are looking exclusively for 10" drivers? I have heard a pair of stacked 15" Lambda's on each side supplementing/providing bass to lower midbass under some Oris horns ...
