I met PWK in '74, spent a day with him at his factory in Hope. The subject of the LF horn delay didn't come up, but a lot of other things did, so I got some insight into his thought process. I'd bet he was very aware of it, but since the technology of the day didn't offer a simple way of overcoming it he simply chose to ignore it, based on his belief that the speaker still sounded very good. He took the same attitude about placing the mid and HF diffraction horns horizontally instead of vertically. He was much more concerned about the overall result than with nit-picking over what he thought were minor details.
