It seems to me from the
picture that Dave posted that on the midrange you would gain
some horn loading effect and on the tweeter the off axis response
would be a bit different across the horizontal plane.

In this case the speakers in question are intended to be ceiling speakers and the fidelity is not paramount. The 1197s run FR (so some comb), & the T 10K and up... we have found on MTs that there is not much horn load, but the wave guide helps keep the low end of the tweeter a bit more directional so it better matches the FR.

a 6ft tall cone, (really a tapered quartewave pipe), the driver for this will be on a flat piece level with the surface at top and bottom and rounded neatly over to meet the cone as a smooth join

Attached is the original conehead concept, which Andy felt was too much of a challenge to not have a go at... good to hear it is still growing.
