G'day Cut-Throat,

In semi retirement these days living out of a caravan doing the North West of Western Australia. Ningaloo Reef, NW Cape some fascinating WW2 history around here and after the Cuban missile crisis in '62 ? They installed a VLF Antennae system 19.8kHz which takes up an area 1000's of acres with 13 towers that exceed 400m in height. Still used today for US & Aust Navy ie subs, carriers etc covering the Australasian Indian/Pacific area.

Yep great fishing up this way - Red Emperors. Exmouth sits at around 22 degrees lat, lovely spot to be in wintertime. Perhaps the East coast of Australia next year.

Anyway back to speakers, as per picture my inclination is to go for a corner horn like your bass bin because that's what would fit better in my room because I have natural corners and the walls are mudbricks(solid) and the floor space is around 36sqm with ceiling roughly 3m above speakers.

Berts use of the revelation OB he tells me can be used near walls but not recommended for corner placement which makes sense as they are a dipole radiators. Plus the Beyna 15" driver 4 off per cab don't come check around $500 per driver.

So did you use a Klipschorn Bass Bins or have them copied ?

And are you using the 4592 compression driver in your application ?

It appears Bert these day favors going fully active on crossovers which is fine with me, bit more flexibility.

I was hoping for a cookie cutter approach but that doesn't appear to be an option so one needs to do their due diligence.

Cheers Johno
