Hi. Weve moved house recently and the new listening room is much smaller than the old one. My BIBs with TB W5-1611 are sounding very different. No bass, all mids. No big surprice really since I tuned them specifically for the old room
So its time for a newer design 🙂 Im quite fascinated with the Cornu. Two different length horns, big baffle, wall mounted. That plus wall + floor boundary for bass extension ie, making the horn much bigger. And minus the spiral since Im guessing the length would suffice anyway?
Heres some points that summarizes my ideas for the new speaker:
• Very thin and mounted on wall for practical reasons
• Wide baffle for nice transition of baffle step and horn output
• Back loaded horn with two different and offset length horns
• Wall, ceiling + floor boundary loading like Cornu/Klipsch
• Built mostly with styrofoam blocks for the weight. Plus its easier
Ive attached a sketch with dimensions. Chamber volume and design + the horn flare is completely arbitrary. I have no idea what would be good choice for that
What do you think? Would it work as planned?
Regards /Bo
