When does tweeter "waveguide" become horn bandpass device?
Posted by Jon L on June 3, 2020 at 11:38:22:
There are many systems out there trying to load 8" drivers in large front horns, but I see even more systems with normal dome/ribbon/AMT/planar tweeters in "waveguides" of various depth and sizes.
People argue re waveguide vs horns all the time, but at what point does a waveguide become horn-enough to exert bandpass effects, i.e. roll off the very top end while achieving the (desired) effect of lower frequency extension?
