TWL,
I found your article extremely interesting because I've been reading great deal about back-loaded horn single driver speakers both DIY's and commercial. I've been an amateur since 1985, but I've never read about the Voigt pipes. What are they? I've been trying to decide what driver and enclosure to use, and you mentioned Fostex, which is one that I'm considering. Which Fostex driver and enclosure did you use? Good and bad characteristics? I am also considering Lowther and REPS R-1. Right now I am listening to 20" x 70" ELS's which I had custom made by JUSTREALMUSIC. They have all of the fine qualities of ELS,
but in my listening space they tend to dominate--it's hard to forget they are there. That's why I'm considering the single driver speakers. Should I start at the beginning with Fostex or start at the top with Lowther? Or stay with the ELS? What are your ideas here? Thanks so much.
