Plug in the CLR horn’s mouth dimension of 17 inches to the equation shown in the following webpage, and you’ll get 90 degree coverage at 650 Hz. It’s also evident in the CLR manual’s off-axis response graph.

This has been bugging me.
If this is 700 hz then the total length of the wave in this chart is 19.35"
The CLR measures 17.63" square. For that size/weight box I'm guessing at least a 5/8" wall thickness.
That would leave the baffle at 16.38" square.
19.35" sound wave across an angled 16.38" baffle. See the problem here in regard to trying to 'direct' a 700 Hz signal with the CLR cabinet? Physics.
HF horns are a complete science unto themselves. Fred Klipsch was the pioneer of using horns
with high fidelity speakers. Did a lot of work for Klipsch through the years including having to
design the 3D solid model of this for tooling. What a B*TCH!!!
