The search for better upper bass - the Whampipe
The next development came about
from experimentation with a TQWT (tapered quarter wave tube, aka
tapered pipe) enclosure designed for Lowther drivers. The lower
Q Lowther drivers were not happy in the folded tapered pipe, so
on went a new front baffle, and in went the high Q MCM aluminum
drivers, and a very smooth upper bass response resulted, extending
nicely to about 70 Hz. This particular design won a local "cheap
speak" competition between the members of VALVE and the Pacificnorthwest
Audio Society. These might be very nice with B-Glow.
