[QUOTE="Tom Manchester, post: 59600, member: 82"] Re: Some horn findings on some boxs I built It's not uncommon to have to cut a little 2-4k on a CD horn, and maybe a few other frequencies. There is no "magic bullet" in terms of what needs to be boosted or cut on a particular horn, but like Silas said, CD horns have a pretty general guideline as to how they need to be EQ'd or they can sound harsh. Don't use the "auto-RTA" function on the Driverack PA if that's what you are using. Also, why not use the 60 degree Faital horn on the new boxes? If you are planning on doing 4, at least the 60 degree would not overlap as bad if you run 2/ side, and even 1/ side 60 degrees of coverage is generally fairly usable. Plus you also have the advantage of actually being able to obtain the Faital horn, which doesn't seem to be the case with the EAW. [/QUOTE]
