G'day. Well previously i thought i was going to go for a bass reflex design using the Fostex FE206E. I still plan to use this driver but have drawn up a design that is similar to a front horn type of design. I made the dimensions minimal because my g/f would kill me if i put anything bigger in. I guess my question is would this sound anygood or am i missing some fundamental design aspects.
Note: Sorry bout the drawings i am using the mac equvalent of microsoft paint. If anyone knows any free drawing programs that'd be great.
2nd Note. The shody drawing on the corners i was planning to use flexible plywood to curve all the corners and stuffing material behind the drivers.
Any input would be great.

Hi,
when in doubt use something that already exists, e.g.

With that outer dimensions as a requisite, IMO you should head to build Dave's (planet10) Frugelhorn project.
BLH design is not an easy task, with lots of math involved. Just take a look at MJK site, http://www.quarter-wave.com/Horns/Horn_Theory.html
Or you could take the trial and error way and risk to waste lots of wood or whatever material you choose to build.

You should read a bit on the Single Driver Website. You will also find different alignment calculators there that will bring you a bit closer to your goal.
