    Hello ,
    very interesting reading, thanks!
    Did someone more information on this Speaker? Used driver. Information on Refractive sound plug. Which 15 "Woofer JBL would do well 950Hz and even have enough bass in a 4-5 ft³ Box ?
    regards

    Geddes has a topic at diyaudio.com , recently he said he wont sell the premachined waveguide but gives away the open cell foam in in blocks for 10 USD / cubic feet.
    http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/showt...hreadid=103872

    FYI I checked the B&C woofer it uses, winisd simulator says 2235 has vastly superior bass ... Geddes has subwoofers, in one of his posts he says even 3 or 4

    I have 4 genuine 2234 , Initially I wanted 4435's but now that I obtained a second pair of 2344 horns I think I go for 4430's . Maybe with foam waveguides too

    Studio control rooms are not that big . They are acoustic treated. I've seen this new fabric panel which they put on the walls. In the studio itself
    velour curtains are sometimes used. You really need a tef analyzer to determine the reverb decay of your room.

    Hello Convergence,

    Yes that was my first thought. But the effort for the room adaptation is probably too large. I will be closer to the Summa.

    Hi. In my experience big speakers don't need big rooms if the room is done right.

    My 4343B's plays very good in my room witch is about 4,5 x 6,5 meters (14,7 x 21,2 ft).

    What to be carefully done is type of furniture, what on the floor, walls and ceiling.

    I know I can do more to make it sound even better in my room, but I am actually quite pleased how it sounds, so why bother...

    Hello Rolf,

    Thank you for the answer.
    Your room is not really small. My space is just 4m X 4m.

    I wonder if you can build an "ULF" sub like that with his (Geddes) simulator prog , called Speak . Someone has it here?

    I have 2x Beyma 18 lx60 I'd rather not sell ( PA plans, hi hi )

    okay, his prog can simulate that kind of subwoofer, I think I spare money on the crossovers and buy it

    meanwhile, there is some talk about wooden enclosure "kits" on the walmart (diyaudio) forum. Maybe I really goin to have these foam horns to play with. Woofers remain unchanged ofcourse , also can listen against 2344's. oh how cool is this
