I thought it would be nice to have a thread showing a variety of dipole designs that might be simple, complex, ugly, pretty, old, new, commercial, DIY or whatever tickles your fancy.
Hopefully the examples will be able to show what others have had in mind when they tackled dipole designs and maybe give us all some ideas of what has and can be done.
I will start with three examples.
The first is a Wharfdale design from England ca. 1956. It is a commercial design that used the old "sand-filled-bafle" trick. This shows dipoles have been around a long time and panel resonances have been a pain since the beginning.
The second is one of my designs that is a variant of SL's Pheonix into a one piece design. I call that design "French Industrial Modern Mission" because of the natural Baltic ply and exposed bolts.
The last is a paper prototype I am thinking about. It may change a lot from what it looks like now. As you can see it is a take-off of SL's Orion. But I like the looks better.
Hope you like them.
Have you anything you would like to share?
