Forgive me… what is the correct pronunciation of “aries cerat?” Air-eaze, are-eaze, cer-at, ker-ate, cer-ought…

The subs he had in Munich 2019 were using the Foxtex Sigma, modded I believe in some way. This look basically the same but a wider version with an extra driver per sub. He really likes this driver as it is also used in the bass/lower mid horn of the
Bill , they are scaled up versions of the Erevus S series base horn utilizing three transducers per horn as apposed to the Everus S horns at Munich 2019 which utilised a pair per unit … An interview with Stavros recorded at the Munich show will expand on the subject


Thanks guys. Very interesting. I have no idea how they get it to function hornloaded into the low 20s with the Fostex Sigma since its fc is 42hz.

It's the same with a TQWT. The lower frequency of the system depends on the length of the horn and not the resonance frequency of the driver (within limits). My TQWT uses an 8 inch Supravox driver and it gets flat to about 30hz even though the resonance frequency is around 50hz.
