Nelson Pass presented an experiment to convert any amp to a current amp by using a relatively large series resistor in line with the speaker. This alone was enough to keep this concept out of consideration for people with low powered tube amps, where every Watt counts (like me with my triode wired ST70). I don't think this is what you meant by "build a real current source" amp though, but rather actually building one of N.P.'s SS designs employing the concept. I never even got as far as the big series resistor, and I'll happily take your word for the CCS source amp being a horn mismatch. But if someone else builds one, I'd happily give it a listen, just like the super conducting VC's.
