Danley DIY Synergy Horn kit - Page 10 - AVS Forum

Please see #280 where Mr. Danley talks about potential kits....I heard the original Unitys @ a SOCAL BASS meeting many moons ago and they filled a big room with a better sound than the Orions and I liked them also... I can only imagine what can be done 10 years latter.

I'm in on the DTS-10 kit this time. I'm getting two.

Click on the Danley Sound Labs site: Danley Sound Labs - Home of Tom Danley - Innovative Designer of Pro Loudspeakers & Subwoofers. Yesterday I emailed Tom and saw that the website now lists the DTS-10 kit again. The price is up a litle bit, Jeff says it's due to increased costs for the drivers, but this time there's no 'packing fee'. Cut from the news on their site:

A Synergy Horn kit?

This DIY audio thing is really, really getting expensive! Had PA parts/woofers and an amp laying around--built my sub. Then I built surround sound speakers--then a 2.5 way center channel and done! Well, I do NEED a 6 foot tall array to fight audio hell in a metal walled garage (under construction) Maybe a tapped horn to go with it (programming design phase)

Now the Synergy might roll out as a KIT? Just the drivers and horn, I can cut wood (see 48T/12W array) Instead of the 12's, 10's or 8's can be used to make the horns smaller since 60 to 80Hz is fine for home use.

Topping 15 watt USB T-Amp to drive? It should be enough umph since the sub takes care of under 80Hz and those Synergies run around 98dB or higher at one watt.

Sometimes is takes a lot of money and effort to be the Village Audio Idiot.

I don't think the DTS-10 (or any other riff on a 6th order bandwidth cabinet) is especially good for a Geddes-style system. It is too limited in bandwidth on top.

Hopefully, one based around their new molded horn + 5" BMS coax. It's a very, very cool design.

mmmmmmmm,
I was going to use one(or two) as the ultra low frequency part of a Geddes-style system...
( he originally said use any three or more subs, unmatched if possible, with at least one going as low as you wish to go)
My goal is to play the bottom key on the piano at live sound levels and with live dynamics.
