Hi epa,

Is the black line you drew an estimation of how the mid enclosure will act? If so, why doesn't hornresp model this? Or is the black line you drew showing where the top enclosure will pick up from?

Oh, sorry - I've never modeled tops before. How much more is there to it than comparing the driver's response to the box's response? Feel free to forward me to help pages if it makes your life easier :)

its the same,its just hr doesnt see the frequentie variations of the driver.
it asumes a flat rigid piston,not cone flexes and such.(i dont remember where i read this tho)

so you can (try to) design a horn to atenuat the weaker part responce of the driver in the pasband.

in this example of the eminence beta 12-a
you can see the rising responce of the driver wich helps the mid horn to extend/attenuate the upper responce ,where the hron fals off.
