Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Re: Isobaric says nothing about extention or output, just enclosure size.

"Isobaric loading does not make drivers actually go louder or lower, it just basically makes the enclosure size smaller for a given alignment/resonant tuning."

With the end result being deeper bass response in a smaller enclosure albiet with less efficiency.

An Isobarik loading configuration also has the benefit of cancelling the even order harmonic distortion of the drivers if they are configured in opposite placements of each other...IE back to back.

I have never heard an Isobarik speaker I didn't like. Same with TL loading of bass drivers. The bass just seems more flat and extended without the problems that most AS or ported loading disciplines display.

JMHO of course,
