A.J. May is still alive and well, and last year everyone who came to the OswaldsMill Tube and Speaker Tasting got a special treat when A.J. showed up with fellow RCA engineer Hans Dietze to listen and comment on an audiophile application of the radial bass horns he was instrumental in designing. Its not often that the guy who designed the equipment you are listening to, 50 years earlier, shows up at your house for a listen. At some point I am going to have to photograph and post the RCA prototypes AJ helped design, none of which ever were manufactured (alas.)As for Ed's question about how the RCA radials sound compared to Edgar salad bowls, I personally listen to the RCA gear in a very large listening room, and the dispersion of the horns, as well as their hemi-cylindrical wavefront work well. I think the answer would be very room dependent.
