Re: Horn loaded Corona Build
There are lots of other great build threads too. Some people have built some really great looking home theaters. Some have made super nice dinner theater installations. And there are plenty of great finishes from various builders too. Almost too many...

Re: Horn loaded Corona Build
Please choose which model you prefer and let me know. I'd be happy to send plans once you decide.
The four Pi is our top-of-the-line free-standing loudspeaker. It sounds great as-is, but sounds best when used with flanking subs.
The eight Pi is o...

Re: Definimax 4012HO - End of Life
I agree with you, 100%. Those B&C midwoofers are really nice. It's a wonderful top-notch in the upgrade path for the three π model loudspeaker. I think this 2020 version is the best that the three π loudspeaker has ever been.
I also agree with ...

Re: 4Pi plan request and question.
You've got mail!
I recommend you use flanking subs with these speakers. This isn't done just to add extension, but also to provide modal smoothing and reduce self-interference anomalies from nearest boundaries. Some people also like to run one or tw...

Re: Corner horns & flanking subs?
Thanks Wayne, that makes perfect sense and makes the corner horn look even better from a total cost point of view. Two subs instead of four.
Personally I'd go for the 7Pi's but my wife does not approve of the look, but she is OK with the 8Pi's as long ...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
That's right, exactly. Set the SPL so that 100Hz is the same level as 200Hz and 300Hz. What you'll also get is a reduction in the amplitude of the dip that results from self-interference from the wall behind the speakers and also reduction o...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
"If you can hear noticeably louder bass or midbass with the subs on, then they're set too loud. Thus is true no matter if they're set as multisubs, flanking subs or traditional subs"
I guess most car 'audio' guys that didn't get the memo. Som...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
More great info!
With all of that in mind, I may try implementing the flanking subs again when I install the center channel. If I do, could I check for proper integration using a measurement with REW from the main listening position? Sounds like I'd be ...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
I've always loved ribbon tweeters too. Back in the 1970s, the EMIT tweeters in Infinity speakers were oh-so sweet to me. They offered much greater extension than compression drivers of that era. But they lacked dynamic range. They were relatively fra...

Re: Three Pi and Three Pi Sub Plans
Your setup looks really nice! Response looks good too. There is some rolloff above 10kHz, which is to be expected from compression drivers. You can add the 0.47uF C1 capacitor if you want - which will add a little sparkle - but I removed that part abo...
