Very nice indeed.

Can you tell more of how do they sound.

I am trying to find the right home for my 12 18Sound 18W800.

Mybe this box will do.

 

Please give us some more coments and pictures.

How would a cluster of 6 or 8 sound?

 

Regards

MarjanM

I realise that time wise it hasn't expired however according to my checks they never paid the fees for the patent so it actualy expired some time ago!

Having looked at nexus's picture, I somehow think my woodworking skills arent in the same league - but thanks for the pics, it has given me some clues on how to go about it . I'm having ago at building some 18 BPH's this week, then I'll have a crack at one of these. Somehow I don't think I'll be posting pictures though.....

a cluster of 8, ( 4/side), in free air, made my vision blurry about 4 years ago, fed with about 8KW of drive

the event was a techno festival held here in Romania

plenty of subbass

I was more thinking of 8 per side.

What is the advantage comparing to the BR design with the same driver?

Anyhow, can you post more pictures plizzzz.

And what are those tops?

That sub looks great. Also, what tops are those??

Nexus, I was checking your forum and see a mini planar sub with 2x15", did you build one or just exists on paper??

What will be best, this proyecto or the 2x15 >??

Keep on the good work

those are a version of the F17PWH from dynacord, but with mid drivers on them

the 2x15 version is not fully tested yet

I would encourage you to build this planar horn using the 18" driver

The plan is very similar to the Stage Accompany XL-Bin. Look at www.stageaccompany.com

Do really your planar will need a mid-bass cab ?? or can be used to 150hz

I guess that version of F17PWH will have the mid drivers closed.

I'm thinking on your planar charged with LX60 from Beyma (specs are like the selenium) and on a non-distance future put them plateamps   and turn them to active systems (a friend build them at a good price). Of course modifications to the ports will be necesary. 

On the other side, how is your opernsource midtop going on?? 

Cheers

1. the planar horn goes happily past 150Hz just fine
2. you guessend right
3. interesting ideea of putting plate amps on the subs (I presume there will be some beefy amps inside)
4. opens source mid top is stagnating at the moment, but I'm sure that as the weather warms there will be more activity (warm weather means prototype building)
