1850-Looneybins - I've made two boxes and tryed something new on it. First I used Oversound 18" Sub800(www:oversound.com.br) See it at http:www.mixcat.com. - 2nd I've used all the possible back chamber volume +-70l and vented it directly in the horn with Fb in turn of 39. This will let the speaker go a bit down in the lowend(Bill Fitzmaurice used it too in some of his designs published in Speaker Building Magazine(there y'll find all his designs free published-except tuba30)detailing how he gained response in low end firing ducts directly in the horn-also tried to obtain a patent on it without success-already patented before fifties). As the box will work lay down on sides I put the ducts just before the first folding, angled about 30 degrees for better flowing of the air using two 50mm ducts(mach OK up to 800Wrms) and near the sides and so the heat has a way outside thru the horn before warming up the back chamber and could be out pumped thru the ducts minimazing compression effect(hot air went up and thru the upper duct). Also note that the 40Hz note was there playing a test CD notes, but with some loss at around 60Hz(have to work more on it problably increasing Fb). If all works OK no need of X1. Hoping it helps increase low performance of the horn... PauloDuto

PASC ive seen that article on a CAR forum,i dont know where it is now.Interesting idea to port the rear chamber into the horn.I dont see any problems with doing this. Perhaps the 60hz hole is due to Loss of Rear chamber so irregular response. Regards Mike.e

Hey Paulo are u based in Brasil? I'm in SP state at the moment, are you anywhere near Campinas? Nice idea for the horn, i've found the sub-800 to be a phenominally good driver for the price. cheers, Rob |

James Novak (Jensen)vented rear wave into horn - musta been otgher - maybe HF Olson (?)
@ PASC - does your vent start just after the first reflector? - trying to visualize duct placement and dimensions = cool trick if balances OK |

this seems like a cool idea, i will have to read the fitzmaurice stuff.. but wont the rear compression chamber be venting the reverse phase into the horn path.. and possibly hence the 65hz decreese from phase cancellations? if theres any more light any1 can shed on this/.. ive got 2x 1850 drivers waiting for a big basshorn project!! but i really wanna get to around 30hz with 2 cabs, even if theyre monsters |

Minaximal,yes they will be MONSTERS. I could do a customised 40hz horn. The PD1850s are 55hz horns i think. Big difference.Just give me a PM Can you fit flare extenders? perhaps 2 will be okay then! Cheers! |

PASC' s idea to modify the 1850 horns by venting the rear chamber, and then if we extended the horn flare could be an interesting combination.. although i am yet to find the fitzmaurice papers on the venting principles.. any1 know which forum may have them? id be concerned about unloading the driver tho.. |
