Hi Romy,
I've confirmed through Goto's Japanese dealer that a drop between 200-400hz is normal for 505TT, their suggestion was to double up on drivers or buy the more expensive versions... Looking at the measurements the 505TT is good for 400-1800...

[quote user="oxric"] So, yes, in an ideal world, I would have seriously considered doing something different….[/quote] I guess your definition of “doing something different” would imply reading of 534 pages of BS from people who have no idea about ...

Hi Romy,1) What dimensions for 1808 baffle would you suggest? 2) Is floor-firing vs. front-facing cone useful or preferred?I believe you wrote LF channels should be placed in arc outside midbass channels. 3) Any *general tips...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I am more and more inclining to finish my horn in the textured paint of the color of my room. However, lately I have another “idee fixe”. My listening room has a very pleasant light pattern, something that was here before a...

I had a Behringer DCX2496 that used for nothing and I think it got broken. I do not want to by another one. What I looking for is some kind cheap, no more than $100 solution that would allow be to have 4 order filters and crossover point up to 250hz...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]Yes, they are Fane 24” bass driver with 24Hz primary resonance. I am waiting for the final sound check; the final is long time away. I will be testing today different back chamber size and different drivers. I have a few Al...

I'm not sure I understand what point you consider a priority, but I can explain the reason for my initial inquiry and what I intend to do.My initial inquiry was intended to acquire information on whether a horn with a target range of 40Hz to 400Hz co...

Hello Jeffrey,BUILDING UPON the inherent/latent Lloyd Wright-esque and Frank Gehry-esque aesthetic potentiality of your midbass horn design, and visually integrating the total horn package as a system within these aesthetic schools (or derivatives th...

Of course i am referring only to the horn part of a 210-type enclosure. Below the horn cutoff, perhaps around 70hz for the 210, the remainder is filled in with a wooly bass-reflex peak, which gives these boxes their characteristic fluffy, indistinct,...

Jessie’s comments about my idea to position midbass straight horns from basement, upper- firing and his warning that the horn will get converted into a giant garbage can made me to think. I did not think about it but it is a reasonable concern. Hypo...

This is a good example of a CNC horn. This is the Carfrae I was talking about. MDF Upperbass horns are made in sort of the same way, but you do have to cut the angles on the Lathe. (or leave the steps like a The thing is it is not really tridimensi...

These are 103db efficient 15" midbass boxes. It's a band pass horn design with narrow bandwidth of 60-250hz. No port thought, it's a sealed box with two chambers in front of the driver. I do not know how they sound but, myself interested in trying th...

The narrow portion of the midbass horn is surely begging to be inside a chimney, or a structure made to look like one, protruding through the roof. I am sure birds nesting on the back chamber will not impair its functionality, though it may be a pain...

With exception to the fact that I have no bass my new room did not give me a lot that I feel might be qualified as strange. I still do not know this room as good as I knew my old room but I will be there, it is a derivative of time. It is not tha...

Let's say we all have a midbass horn that plays down to 80Hz. I know some of us are special, so their midbass horn plays down to 40Hz. But still.What to do for the lower frequencies? Sealed or Infinite baffle (that's two good options). Now we need a ...
|

We should define some borders here; LF, when you have an UBH, should be from around 100 hz down to 30 hz, where the last fundamental tone of an instrument is played. ULF should be under 25-20hz.I would say that a driver playing 25-30 hz should...

[quote user="js"]Could anyone please advise me as to the recommended rear chamber volume for a Le C'leach horn with a throat of 240cm2, mouth of 7089cm2, length of 47cm, cutoff of 160Hz, T of 0.8? I'm thinking of using a Beyma 122Nd which has a sd o...

Oops sorry, I just re-read you post and you did said the “cub feet”. I read it as “sq feet”… so it came from it… If I have 12,000 square feet I would defiantly build a nice sleeping place for my Koshka inside a 50Hz midbass horn… That is one of the r...

of MTM arrangement of two TAD 1201 in <100 Hz Horn ? I assume they would both work in the same frequency range . Also JBL LE8 is only 89 db driver and it doesn't look like it can take any power . Difference in efficiency within the channels would ...

[quote user="Rewind"]You said are lucky to get hornloading down to 150Hz. Then I guess you suggest you will end up at maybe 175Hz. Hornloading a compression driver down to 175Hz is not too difficult and the horn will not be larger than the Avantgarde...

Skushino. Yes TH is designed to play 2 octaves and no more, this derives from the design which actually uses a labrynth, in the shape of a horn, to return (and amplify) the back wave of the driver to the front and add its strenght to the output, no...
|

I kind of got stuck in selecting an upper midrange driver, above 2kHz. If a driver is going to screech in your ears it is going to be in these frequencies. I was never really satisfied with the range of 1" compression drivers I tried. That is wha...

[quote user="de charlus"]It is indeed an interesting subject; I am instinctively drawn to it due to the fact that the majority of orchestral instruments - the majority of my listening is orchestral/chamber/classical soloists - produce their own sound...

Charlus, it is not about an expression of gratitude, trust me, I am very indifferent neither to criticism or appreciation. Ironically what you are trying to do is in a way an organic holding a touch of a few audio ideas that I happened to advocate as...

Had a wonderful visit with my Japanese friend. But now she's flying West over the Pacific, and I wanted to add my experience to the TH discussion.The main benefit of the TH is the relatively small mouth compared with a traditional horn. That's all....

Romy I see were you are going With this horn worship for midbass. It is the correct thing to do "But you still will not be happy with the outcome because it does no go low enough. You will not be happy with 60hz. Then you will need something that ...

The horn are in the listening room, ready for final assembly, finishing and hopefully lifting up. My carpenter re-measured with laser rangefinder all key aspects of attic and gave me 80% that the horns will fit into the 3D space we designate for them...
