Hello,
Yes, I am fan, less expensive, but in the same school.

Very Nice Stephane
You've effectively built a modern version of the Westrex 20/80 System ( though I like the looks of yours much more ) .
In your opinion , which of these two horn types gives you the better imaging ( Acoustilens or the GPA 6040 ) ?
>< cheers
ps 1 ; here are 3 examples of the original woofers ( courtesy eBay ) .
- Obviously, technology licensed from Altec ( I hope W.E. actually paid ) .
ps 2 ; I like your solution for mounting the lens without drilling holes into the vintage metal .
Hello,
The image of WESTREX is more natural.
Details: westrex the horn are made of fiberglass

Stephane, nice aquisition! SCORE!
Do you see field coil drivers in your future someday for these horns...?!?
Later, maybe, next my budget.

Hi, all!
What is price of 399 & 390?
I wrote to GPA yesterday, but there isnt reply yet
and is anywhere some measurements of this drivers?
I have answer, price is acceptable for me.
Stéphane, did 399 need the tweeter? (your impression - no? )
Hello,
The 399 has a frequency response that drops to 16 kHz, but added a tweeter according to his tastes.
