Re: Constant directivity verses on-axis EQ for non-uniform directivity (aka baffle step filters)
Glad it was helpful. I hope it made sense and wasn't too abstract.
I find myself getting a lot of the same questions and comments over the years, and I tend to link to past posts in reply. I had a list of about a dozen posts that sort of covered the...

Re: Constant directivity verses on-axis EQ for non-uniform directivity (aka baffle step filters)
Thanks Wayne for including your white paper here to Bill's thread. I really liked the form and simplicity in your examples. It was even simple enough for me to follow.

Constant directivity verses on-axis EQ for non-uniform directivity (aka baffle step filters)
I'm not a proponent of baffle step compensation, at least not for physically large speakers like mine. This is especially true for speakers that have constant directivity because baffle step is caused by a directivity change. If a speaker has constant ...

Re: New Year, New Tweeter, Merry Christmas
I'm hoping that you hear what I hear and come up with a better woofer and primo crossover. Even crossed down at 2k it feels like theres a hole in the mid-range.
This fellow Krutke, who designs for Madisound, is a big Linkwitz-Riley fan and the words &qu...

Re: Soffit (Flush Mount) Reference Speakers
I would suggest simply building the speakers as designed and mounting them in the wall. If you can close the gap so the wall is the baffle, that's great but as long as the gap is small it is acoustically invisible.
Radiating into half-space does incr...

Re: ART Arrays for Home Theater
I'm going to defer to some of the other guys here that are using ART Array loudspeakers, and have lived with them for a while.
A bit of history: Fred Thompson designed the ART Arrays and built the prototypes. He gave them to me, along with two cross...

two π tower vs. eight π
Some people have built the towers "sideways" and have liked the results. I would suggest doing that instead of the smaller bookshelf model if they're going to be used as mains and not surrounds, especially if you won't be using subs.

A Possible 2.5 PI?
I've got a problem; my living room is small. I recently built a pair of 1 PI speakers. I love them. I put them in my living room to replace a popular mini-tower horn loaded system. They are physically too wide for the room. Where the original speakers ...

Re: In wall or free standing?
Wall mounted speakers are monopoles, yes. You can mount the speaker any way you want to. Like I said in my last post, most purpose designed wall-mount speakers are very much like car speakers, using the wall itself as the baffle and the space behind th...

Re: In wall or free standing?
If you're talking about the little car speakers behind a plate, then you're right, those aren't good for much more than casual listening. I think in general, that's what people expect of wall mount or ceiling mount speakers. But you can place a well-de...
