Thanks, Ron

Smith not Subfloor Horn. I've seen this picture before! Is there a finished picture?
If I buy this house I'm in I could do something like that! There's about 2' of space below the floor joists and the dirt is easy digging. That and a wine cellar.
the Smith horn is a 500Hz horn.

Hello Ron,
The Smith horn is also called the Distributed Source Horn. It is a diffraction horn for a 1 inch driver with 800Hz cutoff. It was designed for mono with very wide dispersion (140 degrees if I remember correctly) though I guess you could block off the outer "cells" to narrow it.
I have a copy of this article. Send me a PM if you are still interested. I will have to find it, photocopy it, etc .
Regards, Tom
Thanks Tom I got it. Happy Holidays!

Hi Ron,
you mean the 2397....if yes, you'l find it in the JBL-homepage/or in this forum library under the data sheets for the 2397.
There's a little drawing down right with all you need.

Tom sent me an artical that Bob Smith wrote in the Audio Engineering Journal in January of 1951. I didn't read it when it came out because I coundn't read and I wasn't interested in audio at the time. I was 1yrs old!
Thanks for the direction to the 2397's.
Ron
Hello Ron,
I have a pair of the 2397's (sorry, not for sale) and If you'd like some close up photos to assist you, it would be no problem to send them to you. I could do some mesurements also. The photos are a bit big (2mb ea) to post here.
And HI Everyone! I'm new here and a BIG JBL nut also, LOL
Thanks Max,
I have the drawing from the library. I don't see the deviders in there, the double ended things that section the inside of the horn. Maybe the 2397 doesn't have them.
Do you have a digital camera? I don't want you to go to alot of trouble with a film camera. Post a picture for the forum!

didn't see the last part of your post!
Send away& thanks, Ron
You know your going to need a throat. The only one's I know of are the 2328's for a 2" driver, and 2329's for 2-2'' drivers (a Y config). May be hard to find??? not sure.
2397 and 2445 driver
Hi Ron,
I think to know wheres your problem.....
I will figure out the mesurements of the 5 dividers in the horn section. They maybe easy to work out from hardwood..
Are you able to read AutoCad 2000 files? if not let me know and I send it as pdf-files or photo.

The 2397 DOES have those vanes, and they are critical to proper dispersion. Widget spent quite a time modelling these for his wooden lipped babies...
