Compared with other solutions like JBL 2360, HP9040, Manta-Ray horn or first generation “CD” horns

We can compare it with some other big full range horn like the JBL 2360A or JBL 2365A.

The JBL 2360A was the last big representative in date of the big familly of Manta-Ray horn then Quadratic-wave and “CD” diffraction horns.

We can see midrange narrowing on this 2360, a lot of midrange beaming too and diffractions (dark red) from 1 to 15 Khz. All theses defaults aren’t present on MX-Shape.
