Technical / Why dual stage reeds
« on: October 19, 2010, 02:08:57 AM »
Hi!
A question for all engineers and others with great knowledge.
Why will a dual stage reed, like boysen, work better than a single one?
I can understand the benefits of the V-force since it has twice the area the reeds only needs to open halv the distance and they will therefore be quicker to close. You can use a softer reed for max bottom end and still it will be quick enough at high rpm. It also has a straighter intake path.
But how on earth can a dual stage reed be of any benefit at all? Please can someone tell me?
Thanks a lot
