I see that Parts Express has (end of July) the Celestion drivers used in the new incarnation of the Klipsch Jubilee speakers -

https://www.parts-express.com/Celestion-Axi2050-AxiPerodic-2-Wide-Bandwidth-Compression-Driver-4-Bolt-294-2142

for a mere $1000 apiece. Are there any horn fanatics out there that are tempted to build a horn using them?

It's a modern ring tweeter similar to the JBL 075/2402 from the 1970s. COOL!

Except these are compression horn drivers and with the proper horn (Jubilee horn?) will cover the range 300 Hz to 20 kHz with no crossover required.
