Re: Living History?The reason it was so big is basic physics and pattern control. The large size extended the horn loading down lower-so it was louder down lower. A smaller horn would not have been as loud as low.THe larger the horn the lower the pattern control went-meaning it was keeping the sound where it is supposed to be-towards the people and off of the ceiling and such.When you start compromising size-you start compromising something else.If you start to think in terms of wavelength size-rather than freq-it all starts to make sense.
