Tom,
I agree with you 100% on all your points made. In the Sept. 1989 Audio magazine a THX article by one of these guys shows a chart supposedly showing the lower distortion of a direct radiator bass reflex against a VOT horn. But no mention is made of the drivers used, if they were the same for each enclosure, or if they were even woofers designed for the horn they were tested in. I find the A-4 overall sound to be more realistic than the new THX stuff, just not as loud and low in the bass.
