Tere,
I'm planning to buy Fostex FE206E drivers.
According to Fostex, FE206Es are built for back loaded horn type of enclosure.
Fostex proposal is http://www.fostexinternational.com/docs/speaker_comp/pdf/recom_enclose/206e_enclrev.pdf.
But those are too big ... will not look good in my living room.
I know about http://home.hetnet.nl/~geenius/Solo206.html.
Can I buy or get exact drawings of Solo 206 cabinets ?
Or maybe there is more horns with exact drawings for FE206E ?
Thank You

I just e-mailed the guy and got a nice big file in return that printed out to about 3/4 size.

Can You help jlsem ?
I will look for the file. I may have it on a disk somewhere.

Here's an interesting design for the FE206E. If it fired out of the front, I'd give it a shot myself. http://www.diy-systems.com/en-us/pg_84.html
Illusus! Please, send me this drawing.
Illusus! Please, send me full size bitmap drawing.
Illusus said:Here is a slightly revised plan for the solo206, slightly cleaner look and smoother mouth...may not make much difference but I find it makes a little more sense.
Email me if you want the full size bitmap version.

As I am working on it too...
I think I have the Solo 206 plan ; I wrote to the author, and he sent it to me.
Solo-206_CAD.PDF
PS: I am working on a slight modification ; going for 20 to 30 liters first chamber
to go lower down to 23/27 Hz at -3db
The other design is from Mr Valarcher {PV Acoustics} with 2 enclosures joined
by a bypass ... the second volume with a vent. The first 31 liters, second 214 liters FE206E going down to 23.5 Hz at -3db ; flat from 28Hz Up -0.5 db
Regards.
Alain.

squalor said:I think the way you made the horn mouth looked better. Did it sound ok using the MDF ? Why did you get rid of it ?
Yes, I made the mouth look a lot like Alain's take on it (one more bend though). It did sound okay with mdf, a little muddy in the mid-bass compared to a multi-ply horn. I got rid of it to try something else, I can only hold on to a few designs at a time before my home gets too cluttered. I'll give horns a go once more when I move to a bigger home; I want to try something rather... well... huge.
BTW, if you (whomever), like Alain, eMail Tony for the plans he'll surely send you a hi-res copy. I'm not having much luck with or time for ressurecting my old HD. I'm being swamped with personal tragedies...I hope s*** comes in three's like they say, I can't bear any more for now.
