RE: Do all wideband drivers have rising response?

Back-horn-loading doesn't take care of the general rising response issue with widebanders, or Lowthers in particular. (That's why Beauhorn front-loaded the driver as well. They claimed that's how Lowthers were designed to be used, and I thought they had about the best implementation.)

I think the shout is caused by both the rising response (we're talking about a general, continuous rise from 100-200 Hz all the way up to 4K or higher) as well as peakiness caused by cone-breakup and/or whizzer interactions. In any case most seem to point the finger at the whizzer regarding peakiness.
