Home High Efficiency Speaker Asylum

Need speakers that can rock with just one watt? You found da place.

Beauhorn

Why is the Beauhorn the only design (that I know of at least) that implemented the Lowther properly (according to its design intent): Horn-loading not only the rear for bass but the front to bring the lower mids up to the level of the upper mids, for a speaker that actually measures flat (from the depth of where room interactions are significant, 80 Hz or so, to 10 Khz)?

I've had Lamhorn, Beauhorn, Cain & Cain, and other wideband back-horn speakers and the B is the only one that sounds and measures close to neutral.

(Thorsten confirmed this in his own measurements around 1.5 decades back now.)

So, why the heck does NOBODY (else) build an enclosure for the Lowther (or any similar wideband driver all of which suffer from the same rising response)?
