3D printing is a good idea worth exploring.

Until now, I found a source what can print only 20"x16"x14". I will be getting the LeCleach upper mid and HF horns 3d printed. Lower mid horn will be big for 3D printing.

Lens is just a directional control for sound waves, similar to registers in the ceiling for home A/C.
