But that you can't even mention other designs on there..?

Lot's of people come on there like I did to find tops, kicks, or subs to combine with whatever other stuff they have or are planning to build. And I know a lot of the members there have lots of love for scoops


By ALL means, you can discuss other designs, if you plan to put paraflex IN your rig.

But, ask for info, graphs, testing, measurements or comparison, then the salt starts.

If you ask a question here about a scoop in the general forum it gets moved to scoop forum where it belongs, same principle. I don't see how the Paraflex site own it to anyone to deliver anything, you can use what the website has to offer or leave it alone. Simple ting.

yet, in a PARAFLEX page, you ask how a PARAFLEX performs at all (ie, measurement, testing), or how it performs compared to another,m and you get shit for it.. which is WHAT I SAID.     also, ask for test or measurements on the scoop forum, you GET them.. ask for the same on paraflex, you get MS Paint drawings and a lack of cohesive results etc.

for the record, you know we have all SEEN the page mate, so telling us 2its not like that" is pointless

"I don't see how the Paraflex site own it to anyone to deliver anything"

ok, so if i say:

"i own the loudest speaker box on the planet......." or some such BS, then:

by YOUR logic, i now owe nothing proofwise to ANYONE to have to back my claim.........?? exactly.

nope. same with paraflex, all folk are asking for is proof...... 

also:

"I get that they don't allow people to critizise their designs"

seriously mate, you feel that THIS is the way to promote your box design, by allowing NO ONE to criticize? lol... my god, what kinda backwards ass thinking is that?

No. Hyping your thing is one thing or sharing your excitement for something is OK by me, but to put forward false claims is another. But have such false claims been made? Please link then, cuz I've just not seen that, but I could have missed it.

yes, youve definitely have.
and no i cant, (apart from the one below Wink as MMJ barred me for asking why the box design DOES NOT change, between 18 and 21" drivers...)

which BTW, is a MASSIVE RED FLAG as far as box design goes..
but whilst we're here, check THAT "fact" for a start as evidence of the BS...
PLENTY claims that box size doesnt need changing for a 3inch driver diameter change....

I've responded to specific statements that I think grossly exagerates. Like if you say "scoop" on the site it's an automatic ban. It's those kind of statements that I find ridiculous.

I think speakerplans is sufficient a forum for scrutinizing the designs. I personally don't think the Paraflex website has to constantly answer every naysayers questions. If they did fine, if they don't also fine (by me). We have right here to discuss the desings. But then let's also not make false claims here either, and be specific of what exactly incorrect information they have passed on.

Scoops is an interesting example because even though they perform poorly on paper and is an outdated design in many peoples opinion, they are still a popular design.

"The other benefit of this approach (assuming the HTR and LTR are phase coherent) is that the group delay profile of these boxes far more consistent across their passband than tapped horn, bandpass and most reflex designs."
