I hadn't posted on this thread before, as I was not sure what exactly the origional poster was asking.

When you posted that stuff on horns and room resonances and standing waves, it became clear to me that you were not speaking with an understanding of compressible media wave energy transport and the interactions with boundary conditions... Rather, your thinking appeared to be more from what has been told you, or from some simple observations..at the first level, that may be good enough, but at some point, that simplistic view will fall apart.

It can be rather confusing when the high level theory is attempted, so many shortcuts are necessary if one actually wants to get something done..That is why I don't try to do any of that math stuff, it is so confusing..

Personally, i rather enjoyed the 10 dB bass increase I got when I put my little sub behind the tv in the corner..it made Jurrasic park much more believable..even though they didn't have any lasers.

Cheers, John
