Is it possible to go down to 30Hz with a stack of punishers? or even close?
What can you get out of stacks of 6 or 8 or more?

I've worked out the horn length is 1/4 wavelength of 38Hz, so considering stacks couple beyond where the horn actually ends, 0.8 of this is 30.6Hz so I thought it may be possible to get 30Hz.

What would the excursion be like at low frequency? does the excursion decrease at low frequencies in stacks as the driver is properly loaded?

How do 2*punisher compare to 1*labhorn?

most people i know High Pass the punishers @ 40Hz...

so i dont think they would really go much lower than that... could be wrong tho..

Hornresp says even in large stacks the knee of the response is just above 40Hz.  High pass at about 35Hz would probably be ok.  But no, you won't get 30Hz at any real sensitivity.
