I wanted to stay away from your 270Hz crossover point but make sure to limit the low bass as much as possible to your output transformer.
If you're 270Hz crossover is 6db then you could use a .00056uf cap instead and get rid of the passive 270Hz crossover part but that would leave your horn subject to any bumps that might happen in the amp so it would not be as safe.
Or, if your 270Hz crossover is 12db then you could change it to 6db and have 6db at 270Hz before the amp and 6db at 270Hz after the amp and still be safe-ish.
But let's not get too off track. Limit the low bass to the amp and enjoy the improvement.
