Who's using these antiques in their hifi rigs? When coupled to a current production compression driver such as a JBL 2426 is horn/driver efficiency about the same as with the 2370A? Seems like I remember Wayne recommending a 6db compensation on these with a 1uf cap on the compensation network. Sound about right? How about running these with the midhorn? I love the way they look. Real cool vintage looking appeal, but do they sound as good as they look? Any thoughts?

Take care! Jerrod
