    Everything you always wanted to know about cardioids* (*but were afraid to ask)

    Hey guys, I was just curious - been trying to understand loudspeakers and room interactions a little better lately As an example of how dipoles can give a smoother response due to their dispersion pattern interacting less (or in a more unique way?) compared to more traditional designs - which...

    Large Low Tuned Ports - Compared to Traditional Methods?

    Good day everyone - Hope you are all well I've had some questions with regards to low tuned ports, and was curious if y'all could help to fill the gaps in my knowledge I've seen many times that people suggest tuning a port to the drivers Fs - which is something that I've seen many people on...

    ^^^ In many ways, that’s what my question would really boildown to How cardioid can have an advantage, but is it really a meaningful advantage? (when taking the whole image into account) Like say you had a full setup (Satellites + bass bins/larger towers, multi-sub, room correction, room...

    Cardioid Loudspeakers - Are they worth it?

    Good day everyone - So I’ve been looking into various methods of applying a cardioid response into different designs - things like resistive enclosures, active methods with rear drivers, and such The thing that concerns me is that I’ve always wondered if it’s actually worth the effort - I’ve...
