Reminds me of the graphics chosen for the packaging of select IEM's measured at ASR

 

[Negatywny]

Cool, make em sexi Shouldnt they contain ascilab logo though?

 

[boxerfan88]

Another ad. I think it's done by their dealer.

Here you can read and see all the pictures. If you translate it to Englisch first.

Regarding standing wave in larger enclosures: have you considered an internal Helmholtz absorber to eliminate it?

i have searched and simulated a number of such configurations in Comsol FEA. Yes, you can kill the mode. however, all these methods create a new mode at a lower frequency which is even harder to damp out. Maybe i have not found the right way. There is some theory about poles and zeros need to alternate and this is what forces a new pole below a deep null

AsciLab C8T is developing.
I’m satisfied with the first result.

The woofer position will be a bit differed to get more smooth response.

Cause the bass roll off is quite smooth and deep, in room response will be easily down to 20-30Hz.
40 to 80Hz -6dB/oct, 20 to 40Hz -10dB/oct.

This speaker has more deep controlled directivity down to 200Hz. It’s rare to see as a passive speaker. It’s almost cardioid speaker.

How do you guys think about this beast?

 

[WeekendWarrior]

Can I ask about the C5C...are there any measurements, and when might they be released?

Early performance looking really good!
Is it a sealed box with 8" push-pull side-firing woofers?
How's the C8T speaker sensitivity looking like? 85?

Yes. Mean sensitivity is 85dB.
Ported type dual opposide position. Not Push Pull.

Didn’t test C5C yet.
Too busy to develop several project for now.
Sorry.

Is C6C still the next release?

Anything you can share with that speaker?

No problems.

You did publish a 2025 product line up earlier in the year, but that didn't include the A6B nor the C8T. Perhaps that could be updated to list your latest plans?

Looks cool.

I love it. And the directivity control is amazing.
I’m just wondering, though, how much baffle step is hurting the mid-bass driver if you are crossing it down as low as ~200Hz? Can you get higher mean sensitivity if you cross higher? Or should I not care, buy plenty of Watts and rejoice in the directivity, low distortion (any early predictions for that?) and excellent overall linearity/bandwidth?

 

[Salt]

Baffle step starts much higher than 2 or 3 hundred Hertz.

Agree. With a narrow cabinet like that, probably more like 800Hz?
And this really answers my question because why use a driver to only reproduce 800-1KHz.

You're thinking 2 1/2 way (2 bass/different LPF), not? , but mid adapted to bafflestep (let's say 85 dB instead of true 87 dB without correction) will allow to adjust bass to this SPL tuned to lower f-3/6.

Are you trying to drive all the other speaker makers in the world out of business? Cause it looks like you're succeeding.

A 2.5-way config does indeed counter baffle step loss, but I was wondering if the 3-way design here could achieve the same by crossing the mid-bass before the baffle loss takes full effect. This assumes that the SPL from the 2x 8” drivers is suitably high to match the SPL of the mid-bass.
