Backloaded horn geometry for two drivers instead of one?

[bbaker6212]

Re: Backloaded horn geometry for two drivers instead of one, I mean without screwing up the sound?

Can two drivers be used in a backloaded horn cabinet?
If so, how do you calculate the compression chamber size
and horn folds if based on that of a single driver
cabinet? The idea is to use two drivers to increase
the efficiency.

just model the horn for a single drive and multiply by 2 for throat size.

IF the drivers are for bass----- and are BIG (12"+) i'd recommend not reloading them. AS rear loading them is will cause phase problems with the front over alot of bandwidth.


this application is intended for small drivers to reproduce a vary wide bandwidth
