sTrak
Round tractrix wooden horns for mid/high frequencies – CNC-machined, repeatable, mechanically inert.
sTrak is our rotationally symmetric tractrix horn line for DIY and OEM projects where clean contour control, stable directivity, and reproducible manufacturing matter more than geometric experimentation.
Our sTrak horns are designed for developers, DIY specialists, studio engineers, and OEM applications.
sTrak horns are optimized for classic mid/high-frequency use — where immediacy, fine dynamic resolution, and spatial stability are essential.
Typical applications include:
-
Mid/high frequency sections in 2- or 3-way horn loudspeakers
-
High-efficiency systems for tube and low-power amplifiers
-
Studio monitors with controlled directivity
-
Living-space-friendly horn systems without aggressive beaming
Thanks to their rotationally symmetric design, sTrak horns exhibit a very balanced in-room behavior and are comparatively forgiving in terms of placement.
-
CNC-precision machined
-
High efficiency, suitable even for low-power amplifiers
-
Flexible driver interface options
-
OEM configuration available
Acoustics & Geometry
The rotationally symmetric tractrix contour ensures a smooth energy flow, stable directivity, and reduced internal reflections.
A continuous flare without abrupt cross-section changes minimizes acoustic impedance discontinuities.
Ideal for mid and high frequencies where natural directivity control is preferred over artificial constant-directivity optimization.
Material & Manufacturing
-
CNC-machined from beech or birch multiplex. Solid wood by arrangement.
-
Mechanically inert wall structure with high internal damping.
-
High repeatability for series production and OEM projects.
-
Manual final inspection and surface finishing.
Integration & Interface
-
Integrated adapter plate for driver mounting → no cross-section discontinuities.
-
Interface options: 1″ / 1.4″ / 1.5″ / 2″ (special drivers available on request).
-
Variants for flush mounting or external installation.
-
Easily integrated into 2- or 3-way systems, as well as fullrange-assisted designs.
Woods & Finishes
Structural Wood
sTrak horns are based on dimensionally stable beech or birch multiplex.
This material provides uniform density, high dimensional accuracy, and excellent mechanical damping — all critical for a mechanically calm horn body without unwanted structural resonances.
For rotationally symmetric horns, multiplex is structurally superior, as it absorbs internal stresses in a controlled manner and remains dimensionally stable even under changing climatic conditions.
Solid wood is available for project-specific applications.
For this purpose, we have built a dedicated sourcing network over many years to ensure consistently high material quality.
Surface & Finish
- Hardwax Oil (standard)
Open-pore, honest, acoustically unobtrusive
- Stain (optional)
Color accentuation while preserving the natural wood structure
- Lacquer finish (on request)
Only when clearly required by the project
No foils.
No veneer simulation.
No industrial surface make-up.
At LMH, the surface is part of the construction — not decoration.
Variants
Standard / Add-on Version
Free-standing or cabinet-mounted
High wall thickness
Increased mass and additional mechanical stability
Flush-Mount Version
Flush integration into baffles
Easy Integration & Flexible Alignment
Various stand and mounting solutions with three-dimensional adjustability allow for flexible and precise alignment.
Sizes
Our sTrak horns are available with mouth diameters ranging from 12 cm up to 130 cm.
Custom sizes are available at any time.
