Transmission line speakers!


Hi group,

I just pulled the trigger on a mint pair of Falcon speakers. They are a transmission line design. I don’t see many speakers using transmission line. Does anyone here have any experience pro or con with this type of design? BTW, I have always liked sealed type speakers over ported speakers!

Thanks much!

A lot of Mark Audio full range drivers use Mass Loaded Transmission Line (MLTL) speaker enclosure designs to optimize their bass response. They are modern designs that more resemble bass reflex boxes in appearance with a duct at the bottom of the cabinet.

The bottom line of any design is how they perform and how musically satisfying they are.
