I was talking a three-way in the footprint of an A7, but it would be just too big and too heavy.
"I have always assummed that such a short flare probably only affects the output above 150-200Hz or so. Was that the idea? "
That's correct, the 30" 20" short flare drops like a rock below about 160hz or so.
Imagine you cut the short flare out of an A7, and throated it for a 10 or 12, you might end up with something that looks like this:
One of the first experiments was a dual 12 with the horn the size of an
A4 flare:
It sounded fabulous, but was deemed too big (issues with sight-lines on smaller stages, etc). The A7 sized horn was deemed OK for size, and adequate when stacked in pairs for a 150hz crossover.
The Viking funeral for the A7 type boxes and the folded horns (JBL 4560 and EV TL5050 shown here).
The new system (has been upgraded to EV HP640 HF horns since this photo was taken).
