Horn loaded mid/bass cab (BD-Design)

Thanks for your reply!

Now i'm thinking about 2 designs. First a straight horn with 80 cm length and a quite large front camber to get the benefits of a bandpasshorn.
Or a horn with 1 meter length folded like the lascala with a large backcamber...

I can design the horn with a relative small mouth wich will give less sensivity and a lower f3. In combination with a large back camber, will this give the lower f3?

How do you think about simulating horns like this?

I will build 1 or 2 proto types to compare them with my bandpass horn. After testing i will work out the cab wich give me the best result in de test. But i want to get as much as posible from the new proto types.
This is the driver i use: http://www.speakerstore.nl/view_new.php?l=nl&p=sp&spkID=116 Parameters look good for horn loading.

Do you have any sugestion for mee? Something i can worked out for a proto type?
The limiting factor is the depth of the cab, i dont want to go over 1 meter total. A straigth horn will be a little problem if the horn has to go down to 65 Hz. I think 75 Hz would be the max for the subhorn.

Also, what do you think about folded horns and a hf respone to 300 Hz?
