RE: Don't the 63s have MILES of wire in their delay line...

In addition the only section of the speaker that reproduces the top octave is the central area. The round circle in the middle is connected directly to the to the secondary of the transformer, no delay line. It is only the successive annular rings that are connected to the delay line.

The delay line is designed to be lossy. It has to be to accomplish its goal of attenuating more HF and output as the signal moves away from the central area in addition to creating a time delay.
