Hi!
Currently thinking about large bass horns. Was looking at the LAB design but this would be cheaper and probably better for me as I don't need a small box...
I found an economical woofer made here in Australia by Etone:
Details + specs: http://www.etonesound.com/bass_drivers.htm#1525
I am not experienced with horns but have have put together a quick horn response model and would be interested in comments as to whether there is anything I have overlooked which is highly likely...
They don't publish the XMAX but assuming it it 3mm or so Hornresponse indicates the maximum output should still be > 125db @ > 20hz and an efficiency of > 110db/wm @ > 20hz.
That said I think XMAX is likely to be an issue with this design.
If the model is ok this could be a good sub, easy to build too as it is a conical design.
cheers, DB
