RE: Voigt Home Constructors Horn plans

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to try Lowther America and Lowther U'K and see what they have to say too. I've seen Haden Boardman's article on Lowther in HI-Fi World. I may try him if other avenues fail. I will post too if I find any info.

The plans I bought included a parts list and cutting sheet, and a well-rendered blueprint of the cabinet, but no plans for the plaster front horn, which surprised me, since it is the heart of the system. By the way, I labeled it a corner horn in my post above, which I don't think it is, but I've seen it listed that way.

What I like about this design for my purpose is that it is supposed to give a wide dispersion to the Lowther's treble and midrange, which is what I want for a mono system, and may balance out the otherwise rising FR too.

I was thinking originally how much space a mono system saves over stereo (which I have also), but then the size of this beast crushes that. That Home Constructors horn looks better from that perspective. I can't imagine the size room a stero pair would need, but then I was running a double pair of KLH NInes in a 9' x 10' room at one time. Talk about a dedicated listening room.
