Hello I am working on my first bass horn and I have trouble understanding how to calculate and model the horn throat. here I have gathered some designs. For example this one has a Hornresp screenshot - what two figures do I have to multiply to get the 180,50 cm2 ? It looks like an offset horn but Hornresp says ND. August |

Also the Compression ratio is SD/ S1 right? How about this case then? Do I calculate S1 by multiplying 378x144?

You can simulate an offset horn as a regular horn. Often the offset part is simulated as front chamber volume instead, which will give similar results, as simulating as an offset horn. The smaller the offset part is, the smaller the influence and usually that's just above the pass band of an bass horn anyway. For >120 Hz that's a different matter.

Thanks for the reply !
So in Punisher’s case the S1 would be 5 cm that are indicated as throat height plus 1,5cm thats the thickess of the board times 28cm which is the diameter of the driver equals 182cm2 ?

If you want to split hairs, you could use the width from the two angled side panels (looks to be a bit more than 28 cm). Other than that you're spot on!
