Interesting pictures. I see you show a straight port, a flared port and a couple of labyrinths. Are you interested in horn designs too?

Yes, horns are larger than vented speakers. But they are more efficient too. That's their main advantage - They amplify sound acoustically. This also means the cone doesn't move as far for a given sound output, so distortion is reduced too. But they are much larger.

ok. my son - Kosta, he's student of Art Academy, made big cases for future loudspeakers, but have not idea what's makes now. sealed, ported, or horn maybe.
