Re: The corners
I took that inference from the OP comments too.
I digressed a bit about how a speaker must be acoustically close to the corner to gain the benefit of constant directivity. That is a significant fact, very important for the proper implementation of a ...

Re: Placing speakers against the wall
The problem is early reflections, and the frequency response anomalies that result.
If the sound source is acoustically close to the boundary, it's a good thing. But if not - and that's usually impossible - then the boundaries give unwanted reflectio...

Re: 7Pi plans
You've got mail!
Your room is large enough, depending on how you layout the space. See the following links for more information:
High-Fidelity Uniform-Directivity Loudspeakers
Speaker placement and wavefront launch
Room modes, multisubs and flanki...

Re: 7Pi plans
The tonal balance is the same, but constant directivity cornerhorns have an advantage in that they do not suffer coloration from early reflections like all other forms of speakers do. They are acoustically close enough to nearest boundaries to act as th...

Re: Speaker placement and wavefront launch, revisited
I tend to prefer constant directivity cornerhorns in rooms like that, with them placed in corners at opposite ends of the short wall. The best listening area is just beyond where the speakers' axes cross. See the link below for more information.
We ...

Re: Speaker placement and wavefront launch, revisited
I never received it so thanks twice for the response! There's something screwy about my comcast account and I need to get it sorted.
The link is very interesting. I'll tell you about my room and you can tell me if the Seven Pi speakers would work. Th...

Re: Speaker placement and wavefront launch, revisited
I got your email and replied. But if you didn't see it, I'll post the jist of my reply here.
The best way to do what you're saying is to build the seven π cornerhorns, as shown in the plans. They are designed to be true constant directivity cornerho...

Speaker placement and wavefront launch, revisited
Hi Wayne,
I'm finally able to access the forum! I sent you an email about Four Pi loudpeakers but I've been having issues with my personal email, sooo...
I'd like a copy of the plans but I also asked about designing a corner bass reflex (or Jensen...

Re: Will 7Pi work in my room?
Some people put constant directivity cornerehorns in rooms like yours along the long wall, and it sounds fine. But it does sound better when they're sitting along the short wall, because it brings forward the point where the speakers' axes cross. This ...

Re: H290C at or above 2kHz
The nearest walls were all about 8 feet away in that video. It's a pretty large room. But even so, I wasn't interested in an anechoic measurement, or even pseudo-anechoic. I measure outdoors for greatest accuracy. That video was merely a demonstratio...
