    Use an Eminence APT 150 horn. looks like a Mantaray anyway.
    Don't bother with a low pass to the Biflex. In + to a Mills 15-20 ohm 12W resistor in series with a 3 uf Poly Cap, to a 50 Watt Lpad to the 150. Works great with far lower electrical load to the HF than the original tweeter setup as used with other Biflex speakers like the Santana, way better than any T35. JIM
