I previously built Valeria, a compact bookshelf speaker using pro-audio drivers. The dynamics offered by this small speaker are impressive, if I may say so myself. Lately, I’ve been thinking of building speakers with better bass response and improved horizontal and especially vertical directivity. This necessitated using an 8" mid-bass driver, a compression driver that rolls off below 1 kHz, and a horn that can control directivity better than the B&C ME10 I used in Valeria…| Lack of Imagination

Horn-loaded compression drivers, which are used to reproduce high frequencies, can get really loud with little distortion…| Lack of Imagination
