I stumble on this video about the characteristics of the Ogy speakers... His internal labyrinth as a front porthole extended 3 feet inside but is homogenous labyrinth with a front porthole and a 4 inches concentric driver...
My own speakers the M-audio AV 40 , which i modified is a 2 way speakers with a 4 inches woofer ... But i created a waveguide extended that make a more coherent waves direction... And i created an external porthole with bent straws of different size and lenght extending 3 feet outside the speakers box...Then an heteregenous labyritnth in my case ... The difference in bass, imaging and soundstage is too unbelievable to be true ... I am sure this Ogy is very good... But mine rival it probably or is not very far behind at ten times less cost ... Most people dont understand how each speaker is a potential Helmholtz resonators , a volume with a neck an a specific cross ratio between the two and the absorbing surface properties inside , tuned or not, create a soundfield of various charaxcteristics relating to these precedent parameters ... If you think all a speakers is about are his caps and crossover you are dead wrong... It is way more complex and the mechanical part of a speakers matter as much if not more than the electrical part or the mere mechanical driver so important it could be ... Most speakers makers dont take the trouble to make more than a simplistic horizontal porthole when they design one , because computing an internal one cost research and money and time ... An external one as mine , ask also for his optimization to do some research and is unesthetical...😁 I dont give a damn about esthetic... I want good sound and i have it at peanuts cost ... I dont even need a sub ...I listen musical acoustic instrument not movie ...it is enough clear punchy bass around 50 hertz for me ... Look at the labyrinth of the Ogy above and listen the explanation here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMmytYy1B78
