Currently hidden from view, there is a conical spike in the center inside, which can be adjusted up to 3mm in height by turning a bolt mechanism.
To my understanding, they are two names for the same thing, with slightly differing use cases. A horn is typically (not always) used with a compression driver and a waveguide is typically used with a dome tweeter / AMT / ribbon. A horn often has a wider frequency range and more depth, but they are both designed and function according to the same acoustic principles. You could say a waveguide is a special case of a very shallow / wide horn or you could just say it's another name for a horn.
Thanks, seems like I had it a little backwards. This is apparently from one of the originators of the term in audio... if I am reading correctly, horns are a special case of waveguide and the confusion comes from a set of less precise equations used to design horns before he applied "real" waveguide equations to speaker design, at which point the term "waveguide" entered the speaker design lexicon?
Your pace and skill at this is breathtaking!
Yes. First product will be for passive speakers. It can be a bass extension module ,a speaker stand and a DSP amplifier at once.
We don’t know exact price range yet.
Yep,that would do.
It is expected to be between 200Hz and 300Hz.
For passive speakers, will the bass module be passive as well with a passive crossover for integration with A6B etc.? I see binding posts in the render as well as the amp.
Bass module will be totally active. The binding post at the back is for connecting to the satellite.
Ahh, ok. So it will contain crossover and amp for the satellite as well?
Yes. I edited the previous reply.
Awesome.
I know your plate is full
but it might be cool to have a sealed Purify 2-way specifically for high-passed use with a sub below 80Hz or so.
Would be interesting to compare to the March Audio Sointuva AWG. After all, they are quite similar designs.
