In Reply to: Supravox 2 way OBs: Please comment on this idea (Duke: please don't laugh at me!) posted by xcortes on February 9, 2007 at 08:21:53:
Hi Xavier,I have been using open baffles of 120 x 110 cm for a while now with my 15" Altec Duplex 605B´s driven by a 2A3 SE amp. It sounds okay in my quite small listening room of 4,5 x 5 meters, but there is not much output below 150 Hz. You will probably need quite large baffles as seen on the chart from Sound Practices (please note that the measures are in inches).
I enjoy the sound of open baffles a lot, there is some sort of magic in they way they play music, but I realize that for these Altec drivers I will have to make quite large enclosures to obtain a sufficient low output.
Greetings,
Thomas
