Hi,
I have built a lot of speakers like Horns, closed boxes or with bass reflexion. And I hear something about speaker, how use the resonance of case for optimise the bass! I won´t believe this, but it was made me curious.
so, I start to built one of this reso. It´was not the real for me, but what was wrong with this? This reso works only on 1 frequenze like a BR.
I was looking around and found a crazy way to built a reso, that really works.
For pictures and detail information, please enjoy:

I hear this box a long time, now I prefer my open baffle, also shown on this forum: http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=103043
Nice greatings, Hatti

Hi Hatti!
It isn't easy to come up anything new for loudspeakers, but you have succeeded beyond all expectation! I am sure your organic, drawn from nature, speaker enclosure is the first time this has ever been done.
Congratulations! To borrow a line from Star Trek, "You have gone where no man has gone before!"

Hi Lynn Olson,
Thanks for answering and gratulation. I know, that´s not easy to show something like this, cause the most people can´t believe, what they see. With normal hifi- understanding you can´t realice what you see and this can´t be! -- so where is any speaker?
Congratulation to you, also! You have found my lovely Ladys!
I have a little work on her, she´s sceeming a little bit! Put the high-cut, on the amp, at 10 -> it´s O.K.
I built some more of this funny things! But not all will be fine!
Crazy idea, try and error and a little bit of knowledge, that´s my why.
Cheers, Hatti

Well, it took a lot of courage to not only make the "organic" enclosures, but then put them on the Web!
I really admire that. I am curious, though ... what does your girlfriend think of them? Women usually have a dim opinion of hi-fi - seems like these would get a reaction for sure.
I just had an unsettling thought - what if your girlfriend suggested a version for her - using a male model instead!?

Instead of an (almost) open baffle with the hole in the back you could consider an upside down voight pipe design.
the sealed end that tapers to a point is inside one leg, the open end could be the neck.
Perhaps both legs, each with slightly different tuning to flatten out the humps in the frequency response? A double voight pipe with one driver. I have no idea how well that would work.
Hatti & Lynn, My wife saw the natural speakers, she thought they were very funny, she actually liked them better than front loaded horns (she hated some I showed her and I am not allowed to build any.)
I love your idea.
Edit:
How does it sound wearing a jacket?
Buttoning the jacket up slightly could make a karlson slot...

Hi Lynn,
this woman-speaker´s not ready at all! So, sound´s not as well, as the other speakers I have! So, I haven´t presented on web, yet. Next time, I will spending most of my time, in testing some other open baffle forms.
So, this´ll be wait.
My wife´s opinon: She like her too. She have no problem with my speakers. First I want to take the form from her, but she won´t! So, i sayed to her: "OK, I ask my lovely next-door neighbour!"
To built a male version: No! I thought about and think: to many resonance by the large body. ...womans body are perfect!
@Lynn & OzMikeH: I have a wonderful wife: I´m aloud to built what I want! I have my own room, to do what I want. She can design the livingroom, how she like. And in her own room, she have her own audio stuff: with high quality transistor stuff, and 2nd: a tuberadio, with small vintage Speaker and a CD-Rom drive for listen!
@OzMikeH: hey, what´s going on? A man had to do, what a man had to do!
Most girls I know, love deep low frequence! Built a small horn first and she´ll stay on your side!
voight pipe: also thought about this; the way has to be a little bigger than a normal leg have, I don´t want to built miss piggy, whith fat legs!!!
Karlson with a jacket: what about my rear open place? and the front has to be stiff!
She sounds better wearing a t-shirt! That makes a high and midrange cut!
Nice day, Hatti

Hi panomaniac,
I like the version, without bikini best, also! So, I have a problem to tune her with a t-shirt!
@OzMikeH:
show your wife this: http://www.realhorns.de/ or look on one of this pages: http://www.rahaso.de/foren/msg.php?f=audiotreff_hoerner&idx=16891&
you´ll find big horns! Than you show her the biggest ones and ask her: "hey, I can´t decide witch one I shout have to built!"
She will be lucky, if you built your small one, you really want first!
Everywhere is someone how make it crazzier!
Good luck, Hatti
