Backhorns [message #16433]

Are backhorns actually horns or are they more of a tapered transmission line? The reason I ask is that I can't figure out why some say backhorns are more efficient and others say no. Seems like the backhorn would add bass but nothing beyond, so it is like a tapered pipe. Since this is usually used with Lowthers and the like, I'll ask over there too. Your thoughts?
