Hello Sven -I'd had pretty good luck with the bandpass for home use except for integration with the upper speakers, porbably due those not going low enough to match. The 4th order is nice on organ and records as it doensn't unload like a reflex but I did get a 70L 10" series bandpass box to have -3dB @28Hz and 110Hz relative to about 87dB and play 'clean'.
A good horn is fabulous - do you build single path cornerhorns or the Klipsch split-path approach? I can't woodwork well enough to make a nice-looking cornerhorn - my only horn has been a 55Hz 3/16 size folded one for bass guitar - like a University Classic 'bendwise'
Also - what flare rate do you emply in your horn? - I think a nice little cornerhorn could be made perhpas with a 50Hz flare.
Best regards Mr. S !
