From my experience of scoops, drivers, extensive testing, gigs, buying/selling, sound dude talk, I have arrived at 2x conclusions,
Scoop design can be
optimised
for one of 2x types of "scoop compatible" drivers,
a)Drivers that are optimum in tight chambers and tight initial throat
b)Drivers that are optimum in medium+larger chambers with loose initial throat,
Personally think trying to design a scoop for one particular driver is pointless, Also trying to design a scoop for all drivers is equally pointless. The only reason scoop owners use scoops, is for the huge efficiency within certain pass band, for given types of music. So optimised cab for the driver type is key.
The tight chamber scoop war is all done, and the winners are ASS, SteveB, Eminence.
The Medium chamber full scoop war has'nt even started yet, but the best I've heard (so far) is from Hangar Lane builder.
The test of the perfect Medium Chamber scoop is impressive SPL, extension, throw, cone control, with correct HPF,
using one of 2x particular drivers. (Which I won't say)..
All "IMHO". smiley23
