indoors? outdoors? it is important for comparing different size and shape horns, no? not one size fits all.

Both outdoors (small parties, not festivals) and indoors in rooms for for 100 or so people. The horns are replacing dual 18's. I also listen to them at home (background music for building new speakers)

The rules havent changed nor the physics-just different ways of squeesing what we want from higher spec drivesr on an optimal horn.

The labhorn is quite cool and amazing FREE! design considering an off the shelf 'normal' woofer *although it has ideal horn specs* its just your average 12"

Bdeap is so magical you cant build it anyway (patented)-youd have to buy one (oops i mean buy many many of them to achieve the desired output just like many labhorns are required)

The only thing which you could do is put a 15" on a horn and fold it simple S fold style like mine!!!

Cheers!

I am using 15's for midbass. I dont think a hornsub with a 15 inch driver would be the best use of space. I like the idea of smaller less expensive drivers, longer horn path. The Tuba doesnt seem to waste a lot of space with a large flare opening, The B-Deap uses the outside of the box and surrounding walls and floor as the flare.

My own. It's nothing that can't be reverse engineered easily enough but I'm not going to give it away.

A Tuba 24 won't equal a Lab, but that doesn't mean it might not be enough to do the job for you. Tuba 30 will give the Lab a run for its money, is smaller, a lot easier to build and uses only one driver to boot.
