jvs1670 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I'm thinking about building HD false corners to put in my existing corners. I built my basement room with corners 16ft apart specially just for my Khorns. If I don't use my THT sub I'm still not happy with the bass. I feel like the sheet rock walls are too thin and flimsy to project the bass forward and just absorb the sound, its also a carpeted concrete floor which doesn't transmit the sensation of low frequency through the floor. Do you guys think adding false corners as described in the Dope from Hope would give me a substantial improvement or would enclosing them like a Khorn TSCM is better? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinmi Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I enclosed my K-Horns several years ago. I have tried different positions, not in corners, etc. I still get the best sound by far when they are in corners. Just saying that enclosing the bass bins is not a cure all, but it will help some. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, I get that, I'll give up the 1/2 inch that going on the outside of the tophat edge would have given. I lost alot more the way they had to be positioned before enclosing them. They sound fine for now. Its a small room. Wanted to keep the side walls in line with the grills. So, I went tailboard outside edge to even with the grill. From the front, you can't see the mod. That was the goal. Thanks for the input. Edited March 25, 2019 by JRS94 add factory picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deang Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 That's a reasonable argument. Khorns sound mediocre in a small room if you can't turn them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Modify the speakers to fit the room... 👏 Here OP, its a bit more complicated. Enclosed Klipschorn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enclosed Klipschorn I talked to Greg, certainly he does some nice work. I plan to look at his stuff at Axpona next month. Fact remains, my mod is fine for my purposes. Kind of like cars, some people require numbers matching all original. Others, not so much. I have both. In the end do what makes you happy. I like my Khorns.

Schu Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 That IS the perfect analogy. They are your speakers after all... Just enjoy them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
