Hi RomyWe build horns anyway some one would like , i have been making the horns that are in the pic for me + the drivers that it use the drivers are a mid bass driver are a6" alum field coil driver i like the sound of field coil magnets +...

Thanks Johan, I got my SG505's and S150 horns, my throat piece is a lot longer than the one you showed above. Why can't they just sell that little screw... along with lots of other "why can't they"...Anyway, I just reread this thread and I can m...

Which values are you after? If its the crossover points, here they are, they ay be indicative for you;dual Tad1601b's in 298lt br boxes - open on bottom to 120 Hz, in a range 90 to 150 Hz ~12 dB (three different settings can be chosen, according to r...

Of cause your reply does not cover the subject that I was asking, which is fine, I do not mind. The subtle point that I constantly was trying to make (and that looks like escapes from understanding of the people who are afraid to use the term Lecleac...

Ok, I blamed the tweeters and MF drivers now the turn of the MF horns. The Mid Frequency Horns (I’ll them “MFH” from now and on) are the stinky like pieces of horn installations, and if they are not done correct then they screw up anything big time T...

For those seeking some decent compression drivers that don`t cost fortune, I can suggest to try the Eighteen Sound ND1460A compression driver. It has aluminum dome and polyester suspension and 1,4 inch exit throat. Does it sound like S2 ? Probably no...

I have been quietly listening and working on my new system. The upperbass horn can be crossed lower than I anticipated, which is great news for me. I was going to have the crossover point of 160hz, but I can easily do 120hz :) The dual tad's will be ...

Hi i am a new forum member and recently i built some speakers using Altec model 19 components 416-8b & 802 G. I built some 7.5 cu ft cabinets with two 4" diameter 5" deep ports this is the optimum cabinet size for the 416 i ditched the 811 horns ...

Yes, when I move the drivers or for that matter if I move my listening position, I realign.What I hear and measure about the drivers relative distances to each other is this. When I first set up the drivers, one horn ended and the next one started, t...

Logic, the conversation of JMLC profile vs. tractrix is not a subject of debate of any kind. This is well addressed subject and if you look at my forum then you will find all necessary information. Look for words La-Horn as this is how I call JMLC pr...

I have been working on my system. I post sparse as I need to listen a lot before doing any changes or decide on anything.I have changed the 1000hz JMLC horn to a 1400hz JMLC horn and the results are better. I have better integration with the Fostex t...

Completely understandable. That's why it's fun! It's enjoyable to make something, study the results, make changes, and start over! That seems to definitely be the theme with horns from what you guys are telling me.So it sounds like I shouldn't expe...

Koh,if time alignment is critical (in my world it is), the sources of the sound (the driver diaphragms) need to be aligned. A very long exponential horn and a short tractrix are not „impossible“ to align, but what reflective surfaces ftom the exp. ho...

As the builder behind these horns, I can answer some of your questions. It's true, I was primarily focused on the woodworking/building side, and now I'm experimenting with amplification and crossovers. I can't speak authoritatively on those subjects...

[quote user="kodomo"]I dont think a standart klipschorn would satisfy the cat. I had one, then I heavily modified it and in the end I built my full scale horn system. I still keep that modded khorn system as a second system.If I may suggest, if you u...

Hi RomyI have one gas tube which regulates at 136v and i put it in both sockets to see the effect. Looks like my tubes running at higher voltages gives me the readings I got. Anyway I bought a bunch of gas tubes and will play with them when I get the...

By “midbass horn” I’m talking about a horn with about a flare frequency of about 60 Hz, to use with Fane 8” drivers, to start with.
(Was planning to use this horn from wherever it sounded best, trying for around 80 Hz to ~35...

Dear
I know that it is very difficult to evaluate others system without a physical visit.
Still i have a very general question about the "worst crossover point".

I asked Alex who got those tweeter from him and he said that it was Stavros Danos from Cyprus. So, it was the Greek guy that we have meet before on the pages of my site:

[quote user="Murataltuev"]So, the question is still opened: how to get 300-400hz.[/quote]Perhaps give the JBL 2169H a try. It is supposedly very good from 300Hz to 2.2kHz, but I have never tried it. Use it in a sub 200Hz tractrix horn with a 4" thr...

Yes, it is a standard SH-50 run as Danley suggests. I have little experience of traditional horns beyond a macondoesque 3-way tractrix stack I created so as to get a feel for horn sound. I'll drop you a line about the melq builder....
|
|
In my first design, I kept them all in a vertical line. It had one channel less back then. When I added the 1" throat JMLC 1000, I decided, as the tweeter operates over 9.6k, the slight misalignment may not matter. Still, I kept vary and kept the fra...

Hello, Ulf.
Interesting. The TAD1201H is 12-incher with resonant frequency of 50Hz. It has relatively low resonant frequency for 100Hz Tractrix midbass but you most like used 10” thought and consequentially shorter horn. The shorter horns beam...
|
|
I am not sure what you are asking. If you willing to get 400Hz horn into 1” tractrix then it might not be any controversy about the horn’s length, it is already given and the folks from lab.de will know it and will do the right length. If they have m...
