Abstract

The classical horn loudspeaker theory is reviewed briefly, and the inadequacy of the classical air chamber analysis for “tweeters” is indicated. The air chamber is treated as a boundary value problem which results in the solution of the wave equation for the general case in which the horn throat enters the air chamber in any circumferentially symetrical manner. The following specific cases are analyzed: (1) when the horn throat enters the air chamber by means of a single orifice, (2) when the horn throat enters the air chamber by means of a single annulus of radius r and width w, and (3) when the horn throat enters the air chamber in “n” annuluses of radii r1⋯rn, and widths w1⋯wn. The theory is verified experimentally.
