I tried, unsuccessfully, to post that link, but you found it.   I am not certain if you will find useable comments about its sound, but there are some there that are quite knowledgeable and many others that are number jockies.

The size/format is also why I did not persue it further.  I have high ceilings but limited wall space so I too would prefer a column oreintation.  A clever person could possibly reverse engineer the tapped-horn and refold it in a different manner.  Or simply design a new tapped-horn with similar performance.

I am mostly awed by how Danley got around the standard rolloff on the lower knee.  I admit that I haven't read that thread closely enough to have seen whether he suggested why.  Typically TH, being a bandpass device have sharper rolloffs outside of their bandwidth.  Somehow Mr. Danley skirted this in his design to give a shallower lower rolloff.
