BiB + OB

inrank · 21st August 2009, 04:01 PM

Had an experiment with a pair of 5S's firing into my old BiB's (and padded round the back to try to roll off as much output as possible) then another pair running full range as well in an open baffle. Supprised how well the little drivers cope in OB without any high pass, and really liking them in this configuration.
Need to roll off the BiB's around 300Hz to mate to the OB's, this should clean up the slight mid range colouration i am getting.

Cool idea actually. Bass horn BIBs can be built using dedicated woofers too.

Stuff the BIB until no more sound comes out above 300hz. You can download free test tones and connect a laptop to your system to test.

Enjoy!

ive tried stuffing the BiB which seems to work, its just the rear output from the driver coming out from the front of the BiB.
