I was already grateful for your first reply. This is more than I expected. Bonus ! Thanks!!
I understand taking off the back HF cover and diaphragm and can probably figure out how to take out the HF magnet assembly if it's meant to be removeable.
What I'm not sure about is the four inch unvented dust cover. If that goes on the back the driver won't vent from the rear so I'm guessing you mean a dome on the front. The 8H doesn't have a felt disc but a spider that looks pretty well locked on to the outside of the horn at the base of the flare.
Bill's recommendation came when I mentioned to him that it looked on first inspection like the spider would be flapping in the breeze if I pulled the horn out. The idea for the 'phase plug' was to build the structure over the whole horn, thus not making a bullet but a 7 inch dia. very short cone capped with a 7" diameter cap. (Like a shallow conical bowl with an upsidedown plate on top - I've once saw something similar on some other speakers [forget the name but I was told they were a '"classic" product] and they did sound very good)
Thanks again !
