Hello, I am Mitch from the West Coast in Canada and new on this forum.
I have a DIY triamped/time-aligned hifi system that uses a 2380a 90x40/Selenium D405 combo to drive the mids from 500 Hz to 5 kHz. For 5 kHz on up, Selenium HM 1125 60x60 exponential horn/BMS 4540 combo.
The 2380a sounds great to my ears and would love to match up the HF polar response with a 90x40 biradial horn as well.
The 2370a would be the match, but the BMS 4540 is a 1" screw-on. I don't know if there is an adapter that would work and not compromise sound quality?
If that won't work, any other HF horn recommendations that would compliment or match the 2380's polar response?
To complicate a bit further, any horn replacement likely won't fit the cab so will have to sit on top with it's own baffle. The top of the cab is 39" off the floor and adding a horn on top will put the tweeter axis 6" above ear eight with respect to the listening position about 10' away. Issues?
Thanks in advance,
Mitch
