Gera, the horn itself provides far more problems than solutions in this equation, and "wideband horn", while not strictly an oxymoron is, practicaly speaking, a matter of octaves covered rather than anything approaching "full range". You're simply not going to get good musical fideliity from a large, coventional horn with a seriously wide-range driver stuck in it. Even a serious attempt would require a totally new, designed-from-scratch driver, such as the world has never known to date, along with a "dedicated" horn to go with it. How much time and money do you have for this?
On the other hand, you could simply stick the "wide-range" driver of your choice into a horn and call it Good... People do it all the time... And in that case, you could simply pick up a pair of Duos, or better yet, buy Romy's Cetlas!
