Hi Wayne

I have an old pair of Peavey FH-1 horns that I was considering the use of as helper woofers in my new home theatre set up. They are quite sensitive at 104db and would go down to about 60hz from the 200hz or so you have suggested in previous posts as a suitable high pass point. However, I worry that putting this type of horn in the front corners would just send bass down the sides of the room to the back and not provide the right reinforcement to the more central mains speakers. They are a fairly compact 'w' horn a bit like the Klipsch La Scala if you are not familiar with them. The front of the room is roughly 13' wide, 7'9" high and 26' long with an open area at the rear with stairs down to the GF. Do you think these could do the job of smoothing out the room response ?
