I can't speak to the DX45 driver but I have experience with Lowther/AER drivers in BLH and FLH. I found the best implementation of these drivers was the FL Oris horn. It improved dynamics significantly over the BLH I used (Medallion) although the Oris requires a separate mid bass. Fast forward a few years where I now use JBL 2441 in Bruce's salad bowls and a GPA 515 woofer in a FLH for mid bass. Forget about any of these designs playing real bass. I used 7 ft tall tapped horns with Definimax woofers for real bass! So this system is large and needs a larger room to shine.
Fast forward again....I'm currently putting together a Lowther OB project fashioned after Nelson Pass for something smaller and more intimate. I always liked the Lowther sound for small scale music, especially the female voice.
