RE: My Edgar Horns

The back loaded horns you bought are 70Hz hyperbolic exponential horns that I developed for Moth Audio a number of years ago. Originally they were designed for Lowthet/Reps drivers, but this year I built a pair for the Fostex 206 whose performance impressed me to no end. The reasonable price of the Fostex drivers make the back loaded horns an excellent horn alternative for all you bottom feeders. I've even designed an 80Hz back loaded horn with the driver fully integrated into the cabinet as opposed to the doghouse on top for the 70Hz horn.

The early version you have does not have the extensive bracing around the mouth to damp out the mouth bell mode vibrations. Without the bracing the horn has a woody coloration that comes from the rear panel vibrating. If you contact me, I can supply the necessary bracing design. Bruce
