[dukanvadet]

Found this waveguide browsing parts express. Anyone tried it yet? looks promising from the pictures, mostly conical with rounded mouth and throat

Nice find.

Too bad there is no graph for it.

 

[dukanvadet]

yes freuency and polars should be standard in the data sheets. someone should have already measured those in the construction. wouldnt be hard to just paste it in..

Bump

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

 

[norman bates]

kinda like the seos, but narrower dispersion.

I like the round over in the mouth (horizontally).

Eminence WG10 1" High Frequency Waveguide 70x60 2-Bolt

1" compression driver for 70 x 60 dispersion

Yes, pity there's no polars or else it'd be worthy of consideration for a project I have coming up. Might just have to use the EWave WGs and get some decent screw on CDs instead.

 

[norman bates]

To me it is a bit narrow dispersing.

To me it is a bit narrow dispersing.

My Unitys are 60x60 and I see no need for any / much more.

And at the moment, $15 from Eminence. Shipping costs I don't know from either place. Pretty tempting! I wish there was a curve...don't even know what driver I'd put on it. That ubiquitious Selenium?

 

[ErnieM]

Peerless DFM 2544 is a good driver. Should work well on that waveguide.

DFM 2535 has good reviews as well.

Peerless DFM 2544...DFM 2535

Dang, I didn't even know they were making compression drivers so thanks for that

 

[ErnieM]

Yeah. I have a pair of 2544's and they sound excellent on the three waveguides I have.

 

[Zvu]

All measurements taken at 1.0V RMS and 1 meter with no baffle...driver on horn only.

For the price, these could be interesting.

 

[Zvu]

Could be. I still think nothing comes close to Seos 12 regarding performance/price.

 

[sheeple]

Where is the good priced SEOS 12, Zvu?
The minimum xo of 1.4 kHz of the WG10 is a pitty. 1/λ is slightly higher than 1.3 kHz.

Out of stock since forever...

 

[Dan_E10]

Yes, I've asked Erich at diysoundgroup a couple times over the last 2 months if they ever get batches of any of the SEOS waveguides in stock. I haven't heard back yet. Too bad if they're gone for good. I'd really like to have tried some of the larger SEOS waveguides.

My guess is that product that sells that good will be available as long as the company exists. We'll see.
