is the phase curves of the driver/horn combos are consistent (not acting weird) and wavelength displacement are short, you can adjust it in the passive.
-
using the cone as horn or a horn loaded driver?
-
me hears nothing. me sees nothing. me knows nothing...
-
are they hornloaded?
-
all i can do is offer some guidance and some practical ways of why some things work or what you might encounter...do what you want with it....i dont care but dont try to tell me to forget all i have learn because of some magic you have discovered....and by the way...imagination can lead to more knowledge or just some more imagination...like passing out the bonehead button.

cheapskate....

then its not a klipsch speaker anymore.

50cent...I got the lures!!!!
-
so you have tried it? i have a tournament this week. i wish i had already ordered some of these......
-
dude!!! that lure looks awesome!!! i am hooked!! gotta go! gotta make room in my tackle box......
-
hey 50cent..you want to excite me..lets talk bass baits.
-
ok the rest of the stories...on the resistor part i mentioned that you had to make sure that the impedance was linear in the passband and that you could adjust the level of the tweet above 7khz because i had gotten lucky and it attenuated linearly.....later on we were talking and i mentioned that you had to be careful if you used caps that were other types cause it could affect the freq response....thanks mr paul harvey.
-
it happens once in awhile...a long while....
-
bascially what happens in a network (balancing network; not a crossover. a network has a crossover and gain adjustments in it) is that it takes the input voltage and changes it to feed the correct voltage and the correct frequency to the driver. this passing thru of the voltage and frequencies to the woofer, mid and tweet is called a voltage transfer.
-
L pads can make worse than better. if the impedance is consistent in the band you are trying attenuate, then adding resistance like an L pad will cause the entire band to get louder or softer. if the impedance is not consistent in the band, then what will happen is that some parts of the band will get louder than the other parts or softer. in other words it will not get louder or softer linearly. when i did the jub networks, i was able to insert a resistor and suggest changing it to get it louder or softer (salt or pepper) because it was linear. got lucky i guess.... if one is sure of the impedance, having an autoformer that has 1 db taps is the next best thing....but then there are other problems.... oh oh. i am sorry. you asked mr bob and not me. sorry.

dude i am going to call you 50 cent...you get most of your stories with me about 50% out but forget the other 50% i said....when my dad had his shop and replaced components for anything electrical he always had one to compare with to make sure that it worked as it should.
-
sonicapphobic....:)
-
ummm no. we could maybe if time permits but it would only be settings....just like the settings for the jub variants.
-
Mr bob....thats the way to do it. do you have reference curves of the original klipsch nets to compare to?
-
and you are funny looking! and i need paul harvey in here to tell the rest of the story...obviously you dont remember well.....or is it selective memory...
-
thats the way to do it. curious, did you do voltage transfer curves?
-
child? that would be me....
-
craig....oh i see...strange.
-
if you dont use the same type, run a voltage transfer curve. if it is not the same as the intended curve then adjust the values.
-
i am glad for you. was just trying to impart some of the things i see when you change caps and other components on a network: the voltage transfer will change. that should be checked and the values need to be adjusted IF you want the "tried and true methodology" to work as intended. its like changing a driver to something other than the original; it going to be different. and i doubt anyone does a voltage transfer curve to see if the original, intended one was maintained. take care.
