Loudspeaker Cabinet Dimensions???
« on: 12 Jan 2003, 04:22 pm »
Howdy Folks.
Are there any simple calculations or laws that dictate driver cabinet dimensions for any given size of driver???.
The reason I ask is I have some very well seasoned Australian hardwood timber laying around on my block and would like to utilise it.
Only have a small listening area say 3.5m x 5.0m so have been toying with a two way design.Possibly ribbon tweeters.
Some of the timber mentioned, are still whole trees and would it be sonicaly sound, so to speak, to hollow out the trunk and place the driver at the end so that the driver for that frequency range becomes a de-facto horn type enclosure.
The other option I see would possibly be an open panel design.????
Any Ideas.
Regards
Ian
