yes this is a tribute to John Karlson
and his design basics
exept mine is also a horn
to be axact a fullrange exponential horn resonator
becose these words are to long i call them soundbody`s
I spend 3 years designing them
14 days to make them and
14 days to tweak de goodmans hifi fullrange speakers
so they could work without a super tweeter
the enclosure itself was good in one time

Default fullrange

hello,

do you made any measurements
and IMP plots?
do you have a sound impression
in comparison to other speaker?

Wow, that is ingenious. Do you have a sense of how low it plays? What kind of music sounds best on these? What are the specs on the driver you're using? Vas, Qts, Fs etc.?

I see that its nesecery to mesure
and i `m buisy to arange a spectrum analyzer
both speakers have resonans frequentie of about
74 hz this enclosure takes it a lot lower
I think to about 50 hz

I learnd that the kwality of sound grows in your hart
and it comes out in every new project

what i have at the moment doesn`t make me tired of listening

it is a very easy sound

what sounds best i think the voice of mary boine
who also plays with jan garbarek
it is a northern scandinavian way of singin

I'm always happy to see Karlson technology and have enjoyed several couplers - would you share a sketch?

does the rear of the speaker drive the coupler?

I'm not particularly interested in graphs as simple response plots will and can not indicate tonal effects which may best be adjusted "by ear" - with real time analyzers such as TrueRTA or ARTA there can be quite a bit of sonic difference and no significant difference on the graph.
