But I read that in higher bass frequencies, 100-200Hz the folding will distort the signal.
Well, subs can be crossed to 150Hz and if the horn is straight-ish then the midbass can still be useful, I think. I am not sure that I can use my compression drivers down to 80 Hz, or if I have to settle for 150~200Hz.
Tell that to the Western Electric, Sato, and Klipsch horn proponents 😉.
Folded horns can sound remarkably clean, done properly 200 Hz is no problem at all.
Art, *ONLY* 29 sq miles?? 5 miles by 5 miles and then some??
This on what 20 watts max of power??
Great, I'll take one! Wait, two... when can you deliver?

Shipping would be difficult, so I would build on site whenever you can deliver $50,000.00 USD plus material costs to me 🙂.
The Tannoy Westminster takes the many folded low bass back loaded horn up to around the 250Hz turn over frequency, where the straight front horn takes over for the 250Hz to 1kHz range.
Art, you would have to build it into a 40 ft steel shipping container - it is ok to put the last few feet of mouth on at the time of "performance"... I presume you can fold the horn as needed to accomplish this task? We will take two, so standard US trucking rates will apply?
We'll take the pair on approval, send you a check for a deposit?
When is delivery? 😀

PS. feel free to use some kilowatt capable drivers for this one... and you can use multiple drivers per horn. That way maybe we can up the 5 sq mile range a bit? What say you?
PPS. the portability feature is a plus for us here...
