I'm openly baffled
« on: 6 Nov 2018, 11:30 pm »
Hi there,
I'm new to this group so introducing myself.
I've been an audio enthusiast and speaker builder for 35 years and have recently developed an interest in Open Baffle speakers.
IMO the cost, sophistication and quality of DSP crossovers & parametric equalizers has now made Open Baffle speakers a viable solution.
As a result, I'm onto my third iteration of a three-way open-baffle design and am very excited by the results.
However, there is always a lot to learn from others, hence my joining this group,
Looking forward to chatting,
Rohan

Images as requested...

Photo of my test environment with OB version 1.


Work in progress showing a test baffle for bass tuning. Unfortunately I'm forced to do most comparative bass measurements outside to avoid room fundamentals.

Ah sorry about that, I didn't know opnly bafld existed. (I haven't worked out how to tag him/her for an apology)
Maybe we can join on the path to enlightenment together.

However I did know this forum had a wealth of interest in the topic as I'd already read some well considered discussions.

Thank you all for your welcome.

No worries, my user name should be changed to "I'm baffled" :? (or maybe just Lin).

Lin  :D

Edit: Lin is spoken for (1 post 2 years ago).  :(
