not asking for free plans. just want to understand what basic shape the flare is to
know how it acts. also interested in how you arrived at the profile(s) used in
your horns if they aren't a standard shape. on what do you base your work?

I would imagine Bill builds prototypes and measures the response and modifies it until he gets the results he wants.

Was I supposed to break these things in?
If I have have to do it with the drivers in the horn, my house will break as well.
Ran some test tones and a little music, using my driverack to adjust filters.
This is my first bass horn project, amazing how clean and powerful, easily took all the power my amp had to offer. I am running a Behringer EP2500 through a Driverack PA. The tops are EV DL15x with DH2A (currently passively crossed at 800Hz) powered by an EV P1250 amp. I tripped the power strip breaker playing a 32hz tone at full power and no noticable pop from the Driverack.
I am going to try the sonic impact amps to drive these speakers with batteries from an mp3 player.
Back to my fun, thanks for listening.

Yeah, you should probably break 'em in at 600 watts or so. That'll about do it.

Those are really cute pics of the kids, and great detail of assembly. Cool!

Check out what Blades976 says about break-in. Don't let 'em get away from you!

I actually got a lot of compliments from some neighbors who came from a few blocks over to see what all the noise was about. I had a scary Halloween cd playing at full volume, cant get away with that any other night.
