My chamber volume is close to 55 L.
For the throat area have a look at this picture http://img2030.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=158938357_CuboKick15KRender2_122_565lo.JPG

Then you can use this picture to calculate the "open area" (the baffle is 47.6 cm on the long side)

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Thank you very much Johan. I see now the throat from the overlapping baffles is 18cm high (?) What would happen if the throat was "reversed" putting it closer to the apex of the chamber? (I assume worse results)
I got 54 liters from the statement saying something like 40% reflex/60% horn ;^)

If I understand you correctly, apart from the driver surround and cone hitting the throat plates above a couple millimetres Xmax, a smaller throat chamber. A smaller throat chamber is going to add a bit of usable range at the top end in exchange for a bit less output at the horns bottom end. In this case, it's a win-win not to do itWhat would happen if the throat was "reversed" putting it closer to the apex of the chamber? (I assume worse results)
Funnily enough that picture shows a pre-publshed design state of the Cubo Kick series. Ultimately it was aborted to prevent too much uneven cone loading (especially on high power).I saw some pictures which led me to think the throat was ~ 1/2 Sd but don't know if they belonged to a CUBO Kick15 or Kick12 build (?)
It's a picture from someone who deviated from the original plan (I've got some questions about it before).

- what would be an approximation of a Cubo-Kick in hornresp?
