Introduction
The Ariel is a loudspeakersystem originally designed by Lynn Olson. Since he
created the first set in 1993 there have been several modifications and
redesigns.
Inspired by his website, which containes also the Ariel Builders Club,
where builders from all over the world tell their experience about the project
i descided to create a new version of the ariel.
Although the main dimensions and the layout of the crossover is a mixture
between Mark 5b and Mark 6c, it shows that the tuning of the line vent and
damping has an essential infuence on dynamic response and low frequency
behaviour. For detailed information see below.
