Tux is telling you that you can get away with not toeing in your mains but the counterpoint is it will work better if you do. Why compromise what...
nice clean fitting flare. Keep going! What did you end up with for the woofer hole diameter? I know the problem of which you speak. I was in...
Hi Bill: I picked up 12 of those NS6's when you warned they were getting in short supply. Now I don't think I'll need them. I'd be happy to pass...
Hi Scott: Yes, the original crossover isn't all that difficult to understand from a basis of experience; there are just a lot of pieces and a...
Designers are led to specific crossover configurations by a kind of six sense or intuition developed over doing lots of crossover designs and then...
More on the close MIC analogy In the horn, making the frustrum deeper is equivalent to moving the MIC back. You can only do this so far before...
Thanks for the pictures. I wanted to see those plugs and how the sound gets past them. .I guess you'll just suspend them in the cavity. Your...
this morning I'm thinking you can measure this effect without having built the horn. Just screw the speaker down to a scrap of plywood with a...
I'm leary about two holes at 180 degrees. I see that Danley does this for woofers, where, if anything, he wants increased HF roll off, but I...

Scott: Thanks for the detailed responses. I need some time to absorb them and my day job is getting in the way. I will keep the conversation...
Hi Scott: Impressively smooth simulations. I've been doing a lot of sims also so I can appreciate that result. Let's compare notes. My target...
too bad we can't get midwoofers with dual 4ohm voice coils. Then use the 6x100W board, dual woofers, and have plenty of headroom
I thought of the same thing but I only have one woofer on each side. But I do use the 2 channel version of that amp in my test setup and the...
Missed those last two posts because my browser was already open on the last page when I sat down. Its the compression I worried about if thats...
You are correct. I started worrying about that as soon as I tried to sleep last night. Squeezing back down to a 1" throat exit will no doubt kill...
edit end of previous post - not this thread but the New Center Channel for the Octagon Thread on AVS, which also discusses paralines
Re' BA BA driver directly on SEOS with mid below doesn't give point source behavior. When your mid is on a baffle, baffle step messes with the...
