Think of it this way, the center vane is right in line with the center of the driver.
In a theatre....these are theater horns....no issue because the sound will recombine. Sit close and it's a different story.

I also remove the bug screens, a mod that others here poo poo. Huge diff in my experience.

I have a picture tutorial on how to do it if you like. It involves a sawsall, a die grinder, bondo, sanding and paint.

I also damp the horn dead with latex paint and sand....thanks Jim Dickenson.

Thanks to all those that responded....some great info there. I think I'll just go with the latex paint & sand & a sand bag in the the top bell.
