prefer a slightly more defined and articulated sound on the medium frequencies, I think I'll try the solution of making other vents laterally, as you suggested,
Good Day Mssrs. @maurizionatoli and @kingkorg
I enjoyed reading this thread and it raises a question. While discussing venting the capsule, a Mr. maurizionatoli mentioned making "lateral vents" to open the mid range frequencies. This, in turn, reminded me of discussions among radio amateurs who advocate smaller 4" speakers with multiple lateral (horizontal) vents in speaker cabinets - opposed to square or round holes - favor the frequencies most used by human voice, i.e, say roughly 300 t0 5000 Hz. The point being, the shape of the vents somehow improved speech intelligibility.
My Question: Is Mr. maurizionatoli thinking of the same sort of effect? Would the shape of the vents (in addition to the size and number of vents) shape the tonality and affect the frequency curve?
(Please forgive me if I use inappropriate terminology. I am a mere novice at all of this - a man needs a hobby don't you know!)
Any traction? OR, have I missed the point entirely?
Thanks - lots to learn, and so little time. James /K8JHR
