The Visaton G25 ffl has an available waveguide:
G 25 FFL - 8 Ohm | Visaton
Waveguide WG 148 R | Visaton
G 25 FFL - 8 Ohm | Visaton
Waveguide WG 148 R | Visaton
Looks like Solen finally shipped the woofers. Theoretically they're going to arrive in about a week. Hopefully there's no shipping damage.
I'm also revisiting the idea of using Augerpro's 3D printed waveguides. While researching laser engraving for panels (for an analog mixing console project) I realized there are loads of companies that will do SLS 3D printing for a not unreasonable price- quiet the change from 10 years ago.
From both an aesthetics and a cost of manufacturing point of view (it's less than half the cost), it would be preferable to use the 4" or the 5" waveguide as opposed to the 8". I know that's not ideal from a time alignment perspective, but I was thinking it might be possible to solve that with a minor baffle slope. For those who know a lot more about waveguide design than me, could you shed some light on all the reasons this is a terrible idea?
