I wanted to flushmount the horn in the cabinet and for phasing I am supposed to align the drivers which gives me about a 5" depth after remeasuring to the base of the dust cap from the face of the baffle.
The horn should provide acoustic coupling to the driver and enough dispersion to prevent beaming.
Am I outside the realm of reality in this attempt?
Or should I just attempt to roll my own from the horn calculator?
Altec did this sort of thing in speakers like the model 14, but as far as I can tell they always user a 1" compression driver.
As far as the crossover, I may need to go three way as this driver doesn't seem to go past 16,000 HZ, though my hearing may not warrant it.
