Thanks for your input, Martin. A dual horn might be the best bet.
However, on a purely technical standpoint, do you think a speaker can be made that uses Helmholtz and pipe organ resonation, both and at the same time? Rear horns are so large and I hoped to make a smaller box.
Thanks,
Ralph

What size is your horn? It sounds promising if not too big.

I would rather have a dual horn but size is the reason I am thinking about other alternatives.

Has there ever been a full range speaker with dual voice coils? That would be one way to biamp.

Small horn huh? Well the basic laws of physics are kinda not with you for a bass horn.I have tried small horns and just wasent satisfied. As Vb goes up then efficency goes up.
The basic dimensions are on page 1 of this link. Just make the height dim 63". The rest are very close. I havent finished the complete dwg for this horn as it took me around 6 months to design and finalize and test my last design.Its a complicated design and will demand a higher level of woodworking skills.

What are you up to, Martin?
(your work on FR QW pipes is appreciated greatly;
this look at FR horns is good news indeed!)

I understand and agree. I would love to make a full sized horn but can't spare the space. Your horn looks like it must be very good, very good indeed. It looks like it is about 5ft tall and 1ft wide. I am very impressed and hope you will continue to report back on it.
All the best,
Ralph
