This is a subwoofer Bose makes and it's supposed to be 25hz-125hz +/- 3dB... at volumes greater than 109dB..I mean what? It's 12' long and 17" in diameter...isn't that a bit big to create 25hz at 109dB?
Where it's thicker in the middle, that's where the 15" driver is. It's also where you can hook cannons together for more output. I just wondered if it'd be any good.
looks to be a form of 1/4 wave tuned TL design. Nelson Pass built the ultimate PAIR called 'El-Pipe o' which were soemthing like 15feet high and made of SonoTube.....Real Home Wreckers if you had 18foot ceilings and 3 or 4 kw of amp laying around. Look 'em up....do a 'google' This is also a design that the DIY guys have latched onto.....works well and is fairly simple.
and people say that Bose can't produce deep bass :-P
Some of the pro products are quite good IMHO. I have heard the Panaray LT multiple times, and it has never disappointed me. I wish I could say the same for the home speakers.
That was used I believe in a cinema somewhere in Southampton during the mid 1980's and one projectionist who works at the Odeon Wet Fish commented that they where dreadful for sub bass and that the JBL 4645 will leaves that Bose Wave Cannon in the dust!
