So next question is the phase plug. Just use a flashlight in the throat....remove it from the horn....and tell us if it's silver or orange.
Nice! Thanks for measuring Ron--now we're getting somewhere..... Allen, with the horns you have, you won't have to remove the drivers from the horns to see the phase plug. Just shine a flashlight in the throat of the horn and you'll see the phase plug. If it's a tangerine plug it will look like the orange circle at the left of this photo--if you use a bright flashlight--even through the screen you will see what looks like tangerine slices and an orange-ish hue....

Ron, my Model 14's and 19's still have the bug screens in them. What differences/advantages do you notice from removing them? Since replacing the capacitors in my speakers with Solens, I am extremely happy with their sound. However, if there's a way to get them to sound even better, of course I'm interested. These are being used in my home, and I don't move them around. Do I need the "protection" of bug screens? Anyone else want to chime in about the merits or drawbacks of removing the screens? I play my speakers without the grills on--I don't want the sound to have to pass through fabric. Do I lose anything by having the sound pass through screens?
