Murat, that's a lot to ask from one driver.

In any case, if you do get useful results with the paper driver, you will have to turn right around and integrate it back into the rest of the system. The big commercial JBL and Altec compression drivers will go down, all right, if you have the patience and the resources to trial-and-error giant horns, not to mention the space to integrate them into your listening room. I think the old commercial horns for these drivers are hard to find, and probably not useful for music in the home. Also, the old commercial drivers will probably need some work for in-home use, if you are in a position to do this, as well. For the well-funded, the dream of the giant Goto and Ale drivers is, they they might be "plug and play" for home use, a blessing it's hard to overrate.

Just to be clear, in a previous post to you I did not mention DSP as an actual, working option for a serious system. Rather, I meant to say that the "need for it" is an indication that one has already strayed too far off the beaten path. IMO, if you really do plan to go this way you might just as well stop working so hard on the system, since DSP will in any case "level" any problems, like "tactical" nuclear weapons.
