A backload horn type speaker system using BETA-8.

The unit uses BETA-8 which is a 20 cm cone type full range unit.

The enclosure uses a CW back-loading horn, which is a rear-loaded horn type with a constant lateral dimension from the throat to the opening of the horn. The horn flares by changing the longitudinal dimension of the cross section.
Cork with beautiful grain is used for wood.

A high adjustment terminal is mounted on the rear terminal.
If you need more treble, you can adjust it by removing the ground wire connecting the high adjustment terminal and negative terminal.
