Thx Wayne, I´ll go with the short version on the drawing and make the top and bottom 11" and the sides a bit shorter than 14.5". That fits 20º and 45º best. But don´t you have the depth of the horn, the only thing I can see could change is the mounting plate thickness, and not the horn itself.

If you take cos45º(14.5") you get 10.25". And if you take (10.25"/11)inv cos you get 21.28ºThat gives a mouth of 12.5" x 25". Using 11" as the top and bottom with 3/4" wood and 12" x 24" mouth, the depth is 11.09", that´s close enough, so this is how I´ll build them. I´ll begin cutting wood on monday. Regards Kim

Kim, When Wayne announced his midrange horns last year, I spent a good afternoon going through my old math books, trying to figure out the angles. You know what I ended up doing? Built a mock up with 1/4" MDF to measure the angles directly off of it. Only took an hour to do the mock up. With a mock up, you don't even have to "measure". Just copy the angle to a sliding bevel and transfer to the saw. Gar.

I build a midhorn with 19mm MDF last monday, using 20º on the ends of the sides and 45º on the ends of the top and bottom. I had converted it all to metric and made a drawing in cad, that ended up making to mouth 63,5cm x 30,5cm, and the depth without mouting plate 26cm. Now I have a pretty good idea how to make it the next time. Which will not be in a while, I have to install floor heating and a new kitchen in the house, before I can do some more wood cutting for speakers.
