Voigt Domestic Corner Horn
British Patent 404037, 1934
The Domestic Corner Horn fits into a corner of a living room. This unique design gave an extremely life-like non-directional presentation, to the sound entering the room.
It had a base two feet square and a height of five feet.A unique feature of the Voigt design is the use of a single driver that covers the entire frequency range. This is done using a mechanical crossover, commonly known as a Whizzer. The driver then consists of the main cone and a short cone both of which are attached to the same voice coil. Bass frequencies are radiated by loading the rear of the driver with a folded horn enclosure.
Available in a range of wood veneers.
