Lovely build of those gorgeous looking wave guides. Dont mean to hijack the thread...but can you please elaborate a bit on these horns. The frequency range, efficiency and compression driver used etc. Not everyday that we get to see horns around hereSadik has done an awesome job with these waveguides..
Here is a pic of the waveguide resting on top of a cabinet housing 2 x Satori WO24P 9.5inch woofers (just for scale)..

Thanks..Lovely build of those gorgeous looking wave guides. Dont mean to hijack the thread...but can you please elaborate a bit on these horns. The frequency range, efficiency and compression driver used etc. Not everyday that we get to see horns around here
Thanks for sharing...the measurements look sweet. And a wide range of 800 to 20k is excellent to have without any crossovers in between. All the best to trying out the CD with the throat adapter.Thanks..
These are the EXAR 400 horns from Marcel Batik (mabat on diyaudio). It accommodates 1inch compression drivers
The frequency range can probably be anywhere from 800Hz to 20kHz depending upon the system configuration.
Here are my polar measurements of a 1-inch BMS 4550 on this horn (raw responses)
My plan is to also try out this horn with the SB Audience Rosso 65 1.4inch CD with a custom 1inch adaptor designed by mabat.
Measurements taken 1m away from horn mouth (gated at 4.1ms)

Due to health issues (lower Back Pain) i am a bit slower on my builds, I have a total of 4 Projects which were yet to be completed, I really appreciate the patience of my clients who had given me the opportunity to make their enclosures, They have given me lot of time to complete their enclosures. I didn't touched a single tool or a piece of wood for about a month. And i have decided to take a break after completing all the 4 Projects.
Do show us the drivers..Another Project Completed Slowly and Steadily.

Thankyou Sameer Bhai.Love them ! Beautiful Sadik !
Thankyou. Its Grill Cloth you can get it from The AudiocraftsThey look beautiful indeed!
What do you use as grill fabric?
Its Full Range Driver. The Driver is Mark Audio MAOP11.2. & Enclosure is MLTLDo show us the drivers..
These look like an MTM configuration?
Superb ...Very niceHi Friends, Now a days I am not very active on hifivision, In fact I am not getting enough time to document my built journey so I thought of at least make a thread where I can share the photos of the complete enclosures. So from now on I will be posting photos of all my enclosure projects in this thread.
So the First post in this thread are custom designed enclosures, they are huge with external dimensions as 1280 (H) x 380 (W) x 420 (D)
These enclosures are RAW finish. (No Veneer, No Putty work, no Primer no Sealer no clear just RAW enclosures and Shellac Polish). One of my hardest project till date because I had to take great precautions during cutting and assembling them. The DIY guys may be very well aware of cutting plywood in the opposite grains, The Plywood gets chip off while cutting along opposite grains of wood. A slight chip off will ruin the complete look of enclosures.
Lets enjoy some final built photos of enclosures

While taking up this project i had discussed with user and made it clear about all the difficulties which may occur in the enclosures, (like chipping of plywood while cutting in opposite grains of wood, some air pockets in the internal of plywood after cutting, or may it be some dents on surface of plywood etc) he also understood the same and gave me green signal to go ahead and make the project happen. Secondly making grill is not my cup of tea but still i manage to make a good looking grill and for such a huge enclosure the grill was also another task.
But in the End this Project turn out to be a Master Piece. Next Project is soon on the way... Stay tuned.
Get well soon Sadik bhai!Due to health issues (lower Back Pain) i am a bit slower on my builds...
