Check out this websight. I addition to the 4520 you see on the opening page, there are several other low frequency designs available here, and they are in German as well.

MA,

The bass horn shown here is much too short for sub-woofer duty. For that you will need to fold up a much larger one and put it into a room corner.

For examples of these, see the drawings of the JBL Hartsfield enclosure:

For Klipsch corner horn construction plans and other horn design information see Jeff Robinson’s site:

To address bass horn flare rate and related calculations see John Sheerin’s site:

To simulate bass horns and determine what is required, use the following program from David McBean:
