When is a Horn not a Horn

[Puffin]

Well here is the completed article. Sounding superb I might add. Is it me or could the 8 coats of paint make them sound different (better!)

Hi Puffin,

Did you forget to attach the link? I do that sort of thing, regularly....

I would love to see them completed, thinking about the FE208 Sigma myself and its good to hear your very positive experience.

cheers,

I am a complete Numpty when it comes to computers. I am waiting for my son to remind me how to get the photos from Photobucket and post them here. I hope to get them on here today ?!

Bingo. Mind you the camera makes them look less than perfect, when in the flesh they look much better (honest !)

I attach an other view. The Subwoofer is of course now redundant !

Ah. now I see why there was too much bass.

Nice work indeed.

This speaker was designed for exactly the sort of conditions you find yourself facing and in a room that small
you will most probably get away without a subwoofer; indeed a sub would probably cause more problems than it
solved in such a small space.

If you are worried about the ampony pf bass, then for about the same layout and a bit bigger (still smaller than the 208 horns) a set of bipole FE127 Metronomes might suit (i've been listening to Fonkens all week which has given me an appreciayion of the 127 (adain) -- i'm loathe ro tear them down and ship them off to the client)
