Thanks! That gray is called 'steenbok' (=capricorn) from a dutch company 'Histor'. Here's the link to the info (sorry, dutch only)
I think I'm going to pull that color up on my phone at the paint supply place and see if they can copy it exactly. I've been looking for a good gray, but so far the couple I've tried end up looking blue or purple in the light.
That gray is very nice, and it goes really well with the silver and the tubes.
Would these two products be suitable for finishing the cabinets in?

Damping the backloaded horn is not an easy job to do.Is important to begin with 2 steps:
-compresion chamber (careful with middle range)
-begining of the rollercoaster.
Also try to put some absorbing material on the bottom,inside of the mouth at corner.
Begin with a few tiny pillows to hear the diferences....
It will take some time to do the job right..........

insistence on horn length, horn aperture becomes narrow result, ringing has been increased. (become a shortcut horn)
1973 at that time, technology and know-how (even manufacturers) had not been established. (I regret having made too early)
Those are cool! Do you have a build thread? What are they all and are you using an active or passive crossover?

Hi Scott,
Unfortunate, the original build thread was on dead-now webserver. Evolution lasted about 7 years and was centered on re-dimensioned Bruce Edgard's "Show Horns" (from 50Hz cutoff to 70Hz). Mids are Selenium's (HM4750SLF+D405), supertweeters are Eminence APT150's. Bass consists in 3 band-pass units (Behringer B2092A being one of them). All is active, digital, crossed @80/500/5kHz. System tuned for classical, which I'm fond of, and positioned in corners of a 35sqm dining-room, toed 45 deg., subs placed after Geddes method. Thanks for your interest.

Just to be pedantic, the CC of a BLH is the room it sits in. The chamber behind the driver is the Air Cavity.
