I've been reading a lot of threads about 604's lately & it occurred to me....why do they sound so good when all the theory says that they shouldn't?

I mean, most say that 1500Hz is way too high to cross over at.....that you need multicell horns or the big radials or Mantarays to get the best sound from the top end driver......that 2 inch, or at least 1.4 inch, is superior to 1 inch throat drivers. The odds just seem to be stacked against this speaker, yet all reports are that it is a fine sounding unit.

With regard to the actual driver....is it a 416 driver?....and what is the top end driver...a 902? an 802?

Just curious to see what yars think.
