Re: Midbass slam
Sub bass frequency' s are many tens of feet long, so 5ft from the speakers shouldnt make any difference.
In my opinion I would only use sealed for subs and you need drivers with huge magnets to control the cone, lack of control leads to boom in my experie...

Midbass slam
I went to a house party the other day which was outside and they had hired some pa speakers, they weren't huge probably 12" 2 ways and a pair of 15-18" subs.
The bass was really powerful, that classic hit you in the chest bass just like only li...

Re: Mono "flanking sub"
I have realized over the last decade or so that it always helps to add bass sound sources, up to about four where we start to see diminishing returns. But even beyond that, there are improvements. I have also learned that placement matters most when th...

Re: Do Speakers Matter Much For This?
Obviously, you need intelligibility. But other than that, if you're only concerned about the vocal range, you don't have to deal with issues that complicate things at low and high frequency. For example, look at the problem of room modes. Those are ha...

Re: Acoustic calculators
I've used CARA, and found it helpful. The main thing I was hoping to do was to model different configurations and see room modes and energy distribution in the modal region. It does a great job of that.

Re: Woofers and models
Thanks Wayne.
Your response confirms my thinking. No use getting wrapped up in a 6pi vs. 7pi comparison.
I'll likely convert my 4pi's to 7pi's, just have to build the cabinets first.
Is it feasable that I could convert my crossovers to 7pi cross...

Re: Woofers and models
You're right about all your thoughts, but really, both six π and seven π cornerhorns sound great driven with 300B SET amps. You'll be please with either one.
Constant directivity cornerhorns don't need flanking subs. But you still can't go wrong wit...

High-Fidelity Uniform-Directivity Loudspeakers
Speaker placement and wavefront launch
Room modes, multisubs and flanki...

Re: How Much Have You Learned?
I have learned a lot about the likely presence of room modes or "nulls" within the modal region below the Schroeder frequency, existing in most typical residential listening room set-ups.
I was aware of these modes or nulls, in the lower sub f...

Re: 7Pi plans
The tonal balance is the same, but constant directivity cornerhorns have an advantage in that they do not suffer coloration from early reflections like all other forms of speakers do. They are acoustically close enough to nearest boundaries to act as th...
