Re: SBIR
Thanks Wayne.
Turns out what I'm trying to figure out doesn't have anything to do with SBIR.
I recently re-read your FAQ on wavefront launch and moved the speakers closer to the wall. Discovered they had less bass when their backs were up against th...

Re: Corner horn listening distance
Since your room has a front wall span of just under twelve feet across, the best area to listen to the cornerhorns in your room is in the area between about six feet back and twelve feet back from the front wall. You can sit more distant than that and i...

Re: Corner horn listening distance
Thanks Wayne,
I interpret that distance as between 9' and up to 13 1/2' from the speaker plane then. Correct?
I currently have the listening seat 11 1/2' from the floorstander's I'm using while the Pi7's are being built. I much prefer not being clo...

Re: Joe's basement
Bruce is getting up in years, that's true. But he's got a keen mind, so while he isn't as spry as he once was - and definitely hasn't been lugging speakers to shows in a while - he is still sharp as a tack.
But Bruce likes the tractrix horns and I li...

Re: Corner horns & flanking subs?
Constant directivity cornerhorns don't benefit from flanking subs. The anomalies created by reflections from nearest boundaries when using traditional loudspeakers don't occur in cornerhorn installations. The sound source is acoustically close to the n...

Re: 3 Pi plans
Flanking subs are really just "helper woofers" except that they are generally tuned to provide deep extension. That way you get both benefits - Blending in the 75Hz to 150Hz range gives SBIR smoothing and extension below that gives more deep b...

Re: Making your audio sound better
Check out the links below and then do further study by searching terms like "room modes," "multisubs" and "flanking subs." Might also study the concept of the "reverberent field" and the difference between the &qu...

Re: 7pi vs 8pi
Facing the woofer towards the corner allows it to be acoustically close to the corner. This allows the walls to act as a source boundary - something like vertical ground planes - rather than as reflectors.
The goal is to make the sound source(s) act ...

Re: 4PI Plans Request
Our speaker is specifically designed to use our H290C waveguide, which uses an OSEC flare. This produces the smoothest wavefront launch possible, due to its seamless transition from plane wave to spherical section. That's what makes a waveguide special...
