RE: Outdated BG Radia thread over AC for Satie
Posted by josh358 on December 29, 2016 at 06:07:15:
This suggests an experiment -- you could reduce the rear output of a Maggie tweeter by 50% with thin strips of felt and then you'd have a cardioid tweeter -- wonder what it would do to the imaging?
Of course you wouldn't have the curved baffle of the IRS, and as we were discussing the other day diffraction seems to impair imaging. You'd either have to build a curved baffle (ouch) or go Richie's route and build a minimalistic one, maybe with a wing. But according to the thread, it has to be metal (for strength).
