Re: 4PI Cabinet plans / question
Is there any reason why the same logic cannot be extended to tapped horn subs? In other words, can THs be mixed with sealed and bass-reflex subs in multisub setups?

Re: Flanking Subs vs Helper Woofers
You're right that home theater sound processors don't have any provisions that make flanking subs or distributed multisubs any easier. Honestly, the underlying philosophies and technologies most home theater processors are based on was developed before ...

I did consider making the bass bin of my constant directivity cornerhorns using a folded horn, like the 12π hornsub. But upon careful considerations, I found a lot of disadvantages in that approach. These considerations are described in some detail in ...

Re: Six Pi Review
As an aside, measurements made in a trihedral corner outdoors naturally do not show room modes, the response down low is ruler-flat. But indoors, room modes take over and make hot spots and dead spots, causing ripples in response. I'm sure in your case...

Re: How does one emulate the typical theater sound?
