oris 200 horn frequency (BD-Design)

by GC, Tuesday, October 11, 2005, 11:30 (6772 days ago)

I heard of people describing a horn at a certain frequency like 200Hz. Is that a permanent/fixed characteristics of a particlar horn design? I thought that's also to go with which driver you fit in that horn. Can you enlighten me pls?

What's the frequency of the Oris 200?

The horn flare and size dictates the lowest possible frequency, not the driver...

What's the frequency of the Oris 200?

220Hz (-3dB) with proper loading of the used driver.

So anything below 220Hz should get passed to the sub-amp? That implies I need to set the RCRC to crossover at 220Hz?

In principle yes but it might integrate better when you cross lower (or higher) depending on the bass system characteristics.
