Re: In-wall baffle
…
Flush soffit mouting is a good thing because it eliminates the (baffle step) directivity transion from freespace to halfspace radiation. Anytime there is a directivity change, there is a corresponding change in on-axis response. This assumes power …

Re: speaker location and type
…will provide the bass sources there.
Soffit-mounted speakers are a great idea, because they remove self-interference from the wall they are mounted in. This also largely reduces the need for flanking subs. It's the same thing for constant directivity…

Re: Soffit (Flush Mount) Reference Speakers
…and didn't have an updated pic of just the soffit mounts...)
So, I guess my nest question is, would you recommend just using your completed speakers and mounting them into my soffits (as in the University setup), or would there be any advantages/…

Re: Placing speakers against the wall
… there would be no transition. This is what soffit mounting does because it puts all sound sources on a single wall. Even better to have a constant directivity cornerhorn, because it puts all sound sources at the trihedral junction of a room's corner…

Re: Soffit (Flush Mount) Reference Speakers
…influence, and wall mounting will help this. So there is a benefit in soffit mounting like that.
And don't forget multisubs...
By the way, here's another good link of permanent installation:

Re: Helper Woofer Location
…to the corner unless it is mounted in a soffit. It's close enough at low frequencies, but by the lower midrange, it becomes acoustically distant, which is what causes the self-interference that flanking subs mitigate.
Soffit mounting always a great …

Re: Placing speakers against the wall
…give early reflections, which is the worst kind. Reflections further away just blend together to create the reverberent field.
For more detailed explanations, do a search here for "soffit mounting" and for "wavefront launch."…

Re: 4 Pi - Horn to middle of baffle?
…halfspace, except those designed for corner loading. However, the truth is they're so large that the transition happens below the Schroeder frequency, making this fact rather academic. See the link below, and the links contained therein:
