this is rated at 99db 1w/1m versus the 93db 1w/1m of the BG17 which do you think will be louder...??
not to mention that as a horn it's going to put sound where you want it versus the wasted off axis energy from a direct radiator in a box...
I get what your saying and I agree you can get a lot more volume with something like that but there are some out there with that style horn and I’m not super impressed with the sound. The reason I’m kinda stuck on this design is because it’s been done before with good results.
