cool - - do "horn" definitions today blur for cases like Mr. Danley's Tapped-Horn invention and did they blur in the past with Klipsch,etc?

sorry for poor scaling to make smaller version of "TOP"

No blurring, Fred, those mouth sizes assume flat response to fc with maximum sensitivty. You can trade sensitivity for extension.

  I know that (with regards to certain F and bulk) - would this have been called a horn 60 years ago? FWIW TD gets some good looking data

    "would this have been called a horn 60 years ago?"
    If it has a flare it is a horn, now or then. But 60 years ago there was no HT, so no need to go below 40 Hz, and therefore no niche to fill.
