[quote user="Rewind"]Macman: Maybe your tapped horns were too small. Speedysteve is absolutely in love with his, and you and him have a very similar setup with your 15" upper midbass horn and all.[/quote]Yes, Im sure you could make them better. I bel...

Hi,I dont use my tapped horns any longer because of the annoying peaks above the usable frequency range. Some how they managed to excite a room node at 60Hz that none of the other bass solutions I have tried messed with. They also didnt have the outp...

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/...

Romy,Just realised that I had dual highpass filters on the TH, which more or less cut off frequencies below 50Hz entirely. A lot better now, still much to be made of course./Marcus...
