RE: Outdated BG Radia thread over AC for Satie
Posted by josh358 on December 29, 2016 at 18:17:46:
it will just reduce the level of the tweeter's back wave by half. At the sides, you'll get a partial rather than complete null. If the back wave is in phase with the front wave, the front and rear waves will add at the sides, and you'll get something like a lopsided omni. If you block the backwave entirely, you'll get another cardioid pattern -- nothing to the rear, full output to the front and sides. This is the radiation pattern of a conventional monopole speaker with a point or line source driver above the baffle step.
