The ID horns are also a bit more user and install freindly.
Ya' the Holdaway's seem to have dropped off the planet. I was lucky and got to demo the Speaker Works Buick as well as Harry Kimura's Acura and a few others they built. I met Eric Stevens at a show in Ventura back in tha' day and from talking to him he pretty much copied the WaveGuide and put his own spin on it. I got to demo Eric's Sable (remember that one?) for about a half hour and we discussed mounting options for the horns. Some guys I worked with in the 80's were using EV horns in the defroster vents and talk about dynamic stage and placement. WOW!!! Eric was very interested. Remember Mark Elridge's 4Runner? He used WG's on the dash.. Anyhow so much for the trip down memory lane.
