Re: What delay to aim for with THTLP

Thanks! Dont think the MSO works for me since im using the two subs in stereo mode, not mono. However, I found a couple of threads on the net stating something like this: add delay to the main speakers corresponding to the length of the horn. Then flip polarity on the mains and look for a deep null ...

What delay to aim for with THTLP

Hi,

Re: THTLP bracing problem

Would it be ok to use 1/2" mdf for the second mounting plate? I dont have much plywood left and the bits I have over for this purpose is quite warped. Im worried to not be able to get an airtight seal towarda the baffle.

My problem is this: my drivers have extended surrounds, so Im using a separate mountin...
