Hola

i have heard Joe's systems a number of times with music i am familiar with and did not hear any strangeness. it is one of the few horn systems that is truly full range. basically, its an Edgar system on steroids. And Edgar was the evangelist for modern DOMESTIC horn systems. very few people have done more work on horns than him. and hardly anyone has improved on his 4-way full horn realization. A pity that he passed away t without putting his knowledge into public domain.
but consider yourself lucky that you did not like Joe's system -- now, you dont have to try and replicate it - i envy you.

yuichi, tad are older designs that had shallow flares and used older compression drivers like tad 4001/jbl 2441. check with crowe and see if his es290 uses a newer steeper flare --if so , you would probably be better off with modern drivers like radian.

by the way, crowe has plans for an onken cabinet for 416. have you looked into that?
