I've just sold the horn setup that I have shown in this thread earlier, so the plans have been kick re-started as of lately. Some more engineering have been done in the midbass section over the last days, with the final details and simulation being finished tomorrow.

I have also ordered the drivers for the horns:

Precision Devices 12MH25

Crazy suggestion but...

Have you ever tried putting any sound absortion (eg. rug or divider or something) on the back wall between your speakers or even between them. It deadens the first reflections. I notice you enjoyed your nearfield listening and moving the speakers forward probably added some of the same affect as the sound absortion.

Your journey looks like a fun one.

Best wishes.

Hi Pilover2000,

I have not tried any sound absorption on the back wall. Horns do not really throw any sound in this direction directly, so I have concentrated on more important reflections instead:

A simple test for you to try. Go stand behind your speakers. If there is no sound there is no reflection.

Walking around a room tells you a lot. (pretty unscientific if you ask me).
