wow Mark, that is cool! You obviously have mad woodworking skills
Is it practical for actual PA use ? I would think there would be a ton of sub spill onto the stage ...
Thanks Mal, I owe all my somewhat recently acquired woodworking skills to very helpful folks on the web, and a good track saw
It's amazing how easy it is to make long true cuts, even compound miters/bevels with just a track saw.
Anyway...practical for PA? Heck yea..
As David said, bass is omni...at least at 100Hz and below where I cross.
One cool thing about a bigger horn like this rig, even though it's only designed to go down to 100Hz, is how the upper-bass/lower-mid pattern control of the horn makes the sub sound like it comes out of the horn.
Much more so than you usually hear from a main on top a sub crossed at 100Hz. Ivan often talks about this ... the need for size for pattern control.
Makes me want to build an even bigger synergy...which I might do.
The outer secondary-flare on the horn detaches for transport....it's just a big picture frame really.
I think I could make a bigger horn and frame that would still be manageable by one person.
