How.  Can we see a picutire of the other side?

Nice work! Are you going to be making and selling these?

Nope. It was a one-off project. It's the largest, lowest frequency horn you can fit in a Cornwall using a K55. Front, flush, recessed mounted. I was going to bond the common adapter to the horn but never got around to it. Of course cutting the flange off.

Looks nice! You forgot to drill he holes to mount it...  :D

Yep. sold the speakers before I made the jig.

 

Very Formula 1'esque, very cool.

Absolutely. First race attended was Dallas in "84. I'll be in Austin.

 

hydro dipped or real laid up Carbon?

Real deal. 

 

Looks like regular horns wrapped in grill cloth. Shiny grill cloth.

Too easy.

 

Is this done with a mold and/or typical carbon fiber build practices (layers, resin, mold/press)?

 

Looks cool at first blush.

I made a model first. (positive). Then I made a master off of that. (negative). Then I made the tool. It's so perfect that the part will fit both ways.

The throat transition is perfect.

This piece was made using the resin infusion process. Prepreg is much easier, but these pieces were not done that way.
