DIY Coax open baffle with front funnel

Hello, inspired by thoughts on one point speakers I took what was lying around from other projects and came up with these great sounding speakers...
Fane 15" 400 paired with a no name tweeter
Separated at 3000Hz with 1st Order Butterworth 2 way crossover design



The funnel combines all frequenzies to a very satifying hearing bath...
It also serves rizing the mids very much...
I hear the Tannoy Autograph approaching...🙂










Next summer I will try a simular enclosure but with open back...like here:

nice - what are the dimensions of your waveguide/"funnel"? - reminds me of Frazier's excellent sounding CAT40 which used an 8" woofer and little horn

Hi, I must emphasis that I built it just from site... ehhh, I mean looking at the Tannoy speaker and doing something simular...
Well, inner front dimensions are 19" wide and 28" high
inner back dim. are 12" x 12"
The side funnel depth is ca. 7,5"
Top and bottom depth is ca. 11"

Actually, it is hard to remember how I did it, because I have no drawings...
I did most of the work just with my inner eye...

But I must say, they sound fantastic open and detailed with a lot of warmth...
I will not build an enclosure! The open back gives the sound much air!
