This is my first horn build effort. Been thinking about this since starting to build loudspeakers and finally have a listening space big enough to support a horn system. 
This is where I am at now, I know there are opportunities for improvement. And I'm thinking about how to develop my system for the future and build it out into a proper four or five-way system. 
Current: 
Thinking about time alignment. Current crossover is a quasi-optimal, asymmetrical 3rd order butterworth/butterworth at 1 kHz. 2226/2445 crossed actively with a miniDSP (not ideal, will build out passive crossover when I "arrive" at a semi-final place). 2405, passive x-over 12 dB/octave. 
300b amp drives the 2445 and 2405, SS Rotel for 2226.
