I saw today link of a Russian guy who was trying to make set a playback around JBL-2490.

The speaker turn out to be a ridicules – 2490 in upperbass shorted version of WE horn and a tweeter in the upperbass mouth. Poor Russkies – they discovered the word of horns but can’t “get” that horns are a narrow bandwidth devise. It is no surprised that all Russian horns idea are ether open idiocy or slavish imitation.
The guy on the picture who employed 2490 used it in right horn for this driver but this type of seashell horn is a great illustration that if it used then there is practically impossible to add to this type of horn other channels. I have no idea why this two way setup was built. If it was just to test the 2490 driver then it is very right attempt but from the picture it looks like that it is some kind of complete solution. If so then it is an unfortunate foolishness in my view.
