Yes. For all drivers except bass drivers where compression is very small: 6" diaphragm with 4" throat.
New recording! GOTO 146 works in half-LeCleach all the way down without high-pass filter.

Thank you 🙂
BTW, I've found another photo of my drivers in their previous life 🙂
An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.
When i was in Japan, i visited someone at Tokyo suburb that had a 6 way full horn system. Some pics at my gallery:

The bass horn was 9m of length, and used a Ale bass compression driver. I brought with me some drum n'bass tracks with deep bass. Fact is that that the driver did not support the excursion, it distorted, and then i blow it.....
I don't know your Goto bass compression driver, but i recommend you to be careful.....

Hi Murat',
Thanks for sharing !
what are the results of your trials with "big models" 188, 3880 etc ?
did you remove ALL phase plugs on All your goto drivers ? including tweeters ? the bandwidth is certainly narrow !

I don't feel that big models are much different from basic.
Yes, I've removed all phase plugs on all drivers including tweeters. It increases resolution dramatically, but of course sensitivity is lower now, especially for tweeter is a problem. And I found out that tweeter's own horn is not good, so I'm making LeCleach for tweeter also.
It is still in my garage, because I need to implement some special actions to get it in room. Too big and heavy 🙂
And I'm waiting for second DAC, because I want to organize delay to TimeAlign this horn with the rest of the system.
BTW, I had some interesting DAC journey and ended up with TDA1540 based DAC with tube output!
It is so much better than anything I've ever heard, that I still can't believe to what I hear! I don't understand how possible, that 14bit DAC outperforms everything I have. I've compared it directly with most known multibits Lavry Gold, MSB and Trinity.

My friend, who has a special equipment in his factory made it for me.
Do you need something similar ?
What frequecy for which driver ?

No, I do not need it now, but I like building horns. I am planning on building new ones too, so I was wondering how you did it 🙂
What machines, and what material. Maybe I can find similar machines and materials here as well...
Is that a JMLC profile, cutoff around 2000hz or so?

Beautiful . Do you have any photos of direct adapter from SG505 to horn ? I mean that custom made without using original one with phase plug . I am thinking about modification on my SG505 .
Attached - my current adapters , locally made, 1.4" output.

Yes, it is JMLC 3000Hz made from bronze on lathe (machine for cutting metall).
I can give you xls file to calculate profile.
Martin from Azura Horn gave it to me.
Great! We are on the same page 🙂
For now I've just removed phase plug from original adapter, but also thinking to make new adapter, because original one has some compression and decreasing the throat diameter and it maked horn longer, which is not good!
So, I'm definately going to make new one with 1.5" diameter same as diaphragm to exclude compression.
