Authors: Keele, Jr., D. B. (Don)

AES Convention 46 · Paper 933 · September 1973

Abstract

Loudspeaker exponential horn computer model studies indicate that there is an optimum mouth size for a horn of specific cutoff to minimize mouth reflections. Evaluation of the reflection coefficient at the horn's mouth reveals how large the mouth must be to optimally radiate into different size solid angles.
