Myke: while you called it a scoop don't you think that it has turned into a Tapped Horn? Where is the turning point? That really what i was on about with the "what's a scoop anyway" thread. Tuck that driver into the mouth and the load impacts the drivers values.  Good lookin box.

   Hello,

Initiated with mykey post I have searched a bit my hard disk and found this one.

Something is jammed with my msn-group so I must host pics on other location..

This "HOG" scoop is flat (+/-2db) from 35 to 110Hz with  sensitivity of 100db-per watt/1m @ 33Hz and average 104db 1W/1m from 40Hz to 105Hz.. – with SD18 ground plane. I have built four of those last summer for a customer and got them only 2 days finished before a man come with van (and money ;) ) to pickup them. I have to say that this one is one of few that really scared me at full power (stacked 2on2).

On this pic only outer dimensions are noted (it is not big philosophy and anyone can estimate internal) ..Internal will be published once when I catch some time to finally sort and upload my site. Bass unit is mounted on horn mouth panel but this does not make this cabinet a "tapped" horn design.   

 

 

Best wishes,

        Stipe

Yep, spot on Stipe.
 
I've really quickly drawn one up and the path length is 2.4 meters, which equates to 35.16Hz.
 
Really nice design, I think you have just pushed the whole cause a big step in the right direction. I can see this becoming the best DIY sub build and it will hold that title for a long time to come.
 
Best wishes,
 
Rog.

Just done a sim,
 
Used these parameters:
 
Horn Length 2.4 m
 
AT (throat size) 890 sqcm
 
VFC (front chamber) 35 litres
 
Mouth 5700 sqcm
 
I didn't do the sim in hornresp, but akabak and another program I use say it should work well. A larger throat will give more output lower down and the dip in response at 115Hz can be made smaller by decreasing the front chamber volume.
 
I modelled the design using an SD 18, but also tried the V18-1200 and the V18-1200 gives a lot more output below 55Hz.
 
Rog.
