RE: Does the Altec 604 design make sense?

The horn centered in the woofer makes for a point source driver system. Most horns which have the horns mounted away from the woofer center need much space for the horn to blend in with the standard design woofer, that s the listener has sit farther way to achieve a proper blend of the drivers This , of course, is true with mos multi driver systems . The 604 allows the listener to sit closer to the system and still hear imaging qualities, at least from a horn tweeter. Probably,why TML used it.

Incidentally I do own a couple o pairs of 604's. On one pair the center horn cell fell off and that one sounds the best.
