Has anyone tried this? I'm thinking of a single full range driver, Lowther DX3 or DX4 say, and as compact a cabinet as I can get, corner placement.
I originally thought about making speakers based around a good bass driver and HF unit, but the black art of crossover design and the fact I've moved to a flea powered amp make me want to look into high efficiency horn speakers.
Any tips for folded horn designs & construction would be gratefully received. I'm aiming for an efficiency of around 95dB/w and I'd like to make these speakers go as deep as my Royd Doublets, i.e. in the 36Hz region.
Disclaimer: I ain't never done nuffink link this before!

PS. Father-in-law is now a certified wooden yacht builder (and an ex-sparkie) so access to woodworking tools for the cabinetry is possible. I'm wondering about using marine ply for construction too, given the fact he has a shed full of it
