Yes, I feel it necessecary to include context of electricity, source, amp, and driver loading, when discussing driver sound even if (as in this case) I have to say I don't really know all the details of what they are--the details still matter. 
The "JJ filter" was a power filter Jeffery Jackson built, that everything plugged into. 
Not real sophisticated, but sturdy, and I think an important piece of the puzzle. 
The amp was a SET, the one in the large thing in the middle my wife kept calling a "pie safe," it uses 75TLs for output tubes I don't know many details, but Jeffery said it took quite a bit of work to get the right loading and output transformers to get everything to work right.  
AND, that dedicated SETs, built for each channel do work better, but tend to scare customers off; they seem to think it's a scam (more amps; builder's just trying to get more money).  
I don't understand why people don't see that building amps/drivers/horns to work in the proper range, with the proper loading isn't a scam, it's just the right way of doing thngs...
