Backloaded horn for Hemp Acoustic FR4.5C??

raypalmer · 26th March 2009, 04:15 AM

Would the Mikasa or Aiko work okay with this?http://solen.ca/pdf/hemp/FR4.5C.pdf

Aiko is designed for the FE108ESigma. Mikasa the 126 / 108 as an option. The Hemp unit may (as in 'may') go into the latter, or Saburo, but the claimed specs. are of dubious accuracy, so I can't confirm.

Understood. Thanks Scott.

Was tempted because the drivers are on for a steal on solen.ca

But the wrong driver for the job is the wrong driver for the job.

I haven't measured the lastest set of these i got, but the early production ones i have measure somewhere between FE126 & FE127, and they probably work better in boxes designed for FE127 (our early pair is currently in Brynn and works well). These were made in very small batches and who knows how consistent they were from batch to batch,

Looks like Solen is end-of-lining the old stock waiting to see what rises out of the new owner.
