Hi GC,

congratulations for your Swings and listening room

For the time being I like to experiment and enjoy the art of compromise. In my small listening room there is not enough space for Oris reference bass enclosure, and even the Compact model wouldn't be angled correctly.

TL pipe idea is good because it goes to a corner close to the wall in 40x40 cm space. I don't need it to go so low, 40 hz are enough for classic music, the important is that a doublebass must sound louder than a cello playing the same note.

I agree that horns are better than TL, but if you have no room for a mouth large 1/4 wavelenght Fc and a horn 1/2 wavelenght long, that is a compromised horn. Maybe a less compromised TL sounds better.
