Here is an idea that I partially like. I make the horn “invisible” by using a full height of a room; I made just 12” as an example.

This is basically the regular J-horns but it is INVERTED and has a few advantages over what people have done so far.

1)      It has very low footprint. You might laugh but it is.
2)      It has an easy ace to the driver
3)      It is easy to move it across the room -juts drive a new hook into ceiling and re-hand the horn
4)      It is easy to tow it off without changing a footprint
5)      In case the room have very high-ceiling it will be very well will break up the HF typical high-ceiling echo reflections
6)      It has just 3 sections
7)      It is very effectively loads ceiling that “might” allow to go even ¼ size
8)      Since it will be located into-front and on-side of MF then it will act as very effective defuser from side MF reflections, introducing a slight “life-bottom-dead-top effect.
9)      If I cover the bottom with carpet then my Koshka will have a phenomenal scratching post
10)   Since It is vertically inverted J-horn and I do not position my MF above it I have no need to castrate the profile of the bend and I might run absolutely perfect parabolic right across the bend

I show the idea to my Koshka and she like it. She told me that if she climbs all the way atop the horn then I never will be able to harass her again.
