RE: Which 2" horn for Pyle PDB 752 to get the best of the mid lows ?

High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

I've given a link to a site showing excellent looking paper horns.

The cruder method I've tried is:

-Cut a horn throat from thick MDF / ply.

-Put spacers (scrap wood) about 5cm thick onto that throat plate, and mount a thin sheet of ply on the spacers, then more spacers, another sheet of ply etc.

-Each of these thin ply sheets has a circle cut into it, of increasing size, which in totality give the contour of the horn. The paper mache fills the gaps.

It's a nice, quiet way to build a speaker - only a couple of steps with tools / dust. You can make it from scraps and a 3 dollar bag of wallpaper glue.
I had a site with construction pics; some glitch deleted most of the photos, so I've attached is the only one I have left.
When I tried it, I used B&C DE950 drivers with a low, 1st order crossover, and they were fine that way (at home listening levels).
