I'm tight on funds and was hoping to sell off the 375's and horns and replace with something less expensive AND with a higher top end. I don't want to mod the baffle so the system would have to remain 2-way.
Would 2441's fit the bill?
Should I consider TAD 4001's? - or something else?
Is there a substitute horn with the same size diameter that would fit the baffle hole?
Finally - should I get the LX5's re-capped - or leave well enough alone? They sound good to my ears but I believe these speakers were born around 1969 so things might be starting to degrade.
Lots of questions- I know.
Thanks for any and all recommendations - this is my first foray into the world of horns.
