This is a full-sized horn with a standardized mounting size & screw threads designed to be attached to what's called, a "Compression Driver".
A compression driver is a particular driver that deals with the high pressures involved with forcing air down a narrow throat structure..as in a horn. Compression drivers are high performance, expensive, massive things to project sound usually long distances. With their inherent limitations, usage in home audio brings about fully strange, exotic horn shapes to deal with these inherent "flaws".
This particular horn is the smallest of three standardized attaching sizes...its ten-inch diameter is rather small as some horns can get three feet across & eighteen inches high , some larger.
Now if you want to experiment by cutting up this cheap plastic thing, you could fabricate a simple four-inch cone full-range driver to match up to it...but this is all highly experimental.

I’m up for cutting!
