Good call!
Way too much audiophilia is (IMHO) based on slavishly following one guru or another. Listen for yourself! If you hear something different from expectations, then you have learned something; and if you share it with the community we will all benefit in the end.

Frank,
You are in for a lot of fun. I run a GPA 414 with a TAD 2001/LeCleach horn. I ran it with an active crossover for a while with a p-p amp on the woofer and set amp on the CD/horn. Lately, I'm enjoying the Joe Roberts style of letting the 414 run full range and crossing the CD/horn in around 7200-7500 with a cap and Lpad. Both ways sound great to me and it just depends on whether you like your vocals from the horn or the 414.
I run a Paramount 2A3 on this setup and it works great for me in my small 10X13 room with the speakers corner loaded. I may revert back to the active crossover arrangement later when I get bored.
Enjoy the ride and report back.
Most of the vocal fundamentals, both male and female are coming from the 414 either way.
Tre'
Have Fun and Enjoy the Music
