In my Unity horn projects, I can definitely here an improvement in intelligibility. Since you're doing an econowave, the baffle is flat, which makes this trickier:ġ) Easiest option is to just discard the use of crossover topologies with excellent phase response. Those mids are always ahead of the tweeter There are two relatively easy ways to do this:ġ) Built a Unity horn. One drawback with the LeCleach crossover, is that the midbass or woofer needs to be about 8-12cm closer to the listener than the tweeter. So it's not ideal to have a ton of equipment, just too many things to break, particularly since someone is always pushing buttons or unplugging things. At my house, 2/3rds of the rooms with speakers in them, are common areas. I think this is kinda "the best of both worlds." I do like full-DSP solutions, but as soon as you have multiple channels for each speaker, things get messy in a hurry, especially if you're doing multichannel. I generally DO use DSP on all my speakers, but what I try to do is:ġ) get the crossover "in the ball park" using conventional filters, ideally passiveĢ) And then I add in DSP for equalization and for high pass filters. This topology doesn't seem to get used very often, but it generally yields a really nice phase response, without resorting to DSP for each channel. It's all I can do to avoid hitting "buy" on those Faitalsīut I currently have 3-4 projects going at the same time so I must avoid the urgeĪs far as the xover goes, I generally just do this: Was wondering if Bateman would be kind enough to elaborate more on the XO used in that testing? I reckon designing a reflex box to 30 hz +/- shouldn’t be too difficult and will have to measure each driver off axis to find the best directivity match for XO …….would like to keep it 2nd order if possible (looks quite doable)Īny thoughts on this? Yes I know the XO will be right at (or below) the N151-M fs of 1.24khz but apparently its good down to 1khz or less in this waveguide. The woofers were just too good of a deal to pass up (about half retail) so even if they don‘t work here they’ll get used somewhere. I wanted these waveguides to try with the eminence N151-M after seeing this thread where PB highly regards the combination Thanks to Bateman I’ve got a set of qsc 10”x14” 152i waveguides that I want to try in a 15” two way with these on sale faital 15fh500 woofers (ordered,should be here next week) that are supposed to be quite close to the 2226h in performance?
