Id say A, the throat is the narrowest section. anything in front of that is horn, anything behind is front chamber.

Finally!!! Smile
I found some spare time to finish the build last month(still no sanding and painting though) and I am quite happy about it. The bins have been out on 3 events and everybody was quite pleased with the results including myself. As i said i havent heard many kick bins but to me they produce the result i was hoping for. Plenty of "in your face" kick without the dominating "woody" horn sound. Still no proper measurments though.

Really interested in this project as I'll be doing something kinda similar so thanks for the updates.

It's not that your measurements are crap, it's because they're showing the frequency response of the cab, rather than the power response of the horn ;)

In horn response, after generating the SPL response, go to 'tools > directivity' and input an angle of 0 degrees. This should give the extra HF that you see on your measurements.

Nice work!
The plan you have postet are really small, can you upload it bigger?

Do you think its enough to fill the deadspace in the cab with polyurethane foam?
Why do you have some kind of quarter there!??

Sorry about the text size, I'll do a more readable friendly version soon.  Though if you download the picture and zoom in a bit the numbers are clearly visible.
And yes the empty space was indeed filled with pu foam. The rectangle there is for the routed handles, though i must admit not a very practical place for handles, but had to take advantage of that empty space somehow. Anyway the cab is very managable, could even do without handles. Not very light though with the 18mm ply. I can lift it on my own ,but I guess i need more exercise Dead. But I really like the fact that they are so small, if i had made the xtro as it is i would definetly have transport problems cause I dont have a big van. Three of them plus one of my mid tops fit in a fiat uno!!!
