Dayton H10RW 10" Round Waveguide
I'll start with my find yesterday:
Dayton H10RW 10" Round Waveguide 1" Threaded, Parts Express, $12
Compression driver: Selenium D220Ti
Sounds great, no colorations observed. No foams used. Feels plastic but strong.

Very good value. A good treble. Can go as low as 1500Hz.

18 Sound ND1460A, horns are the 18 Sound XT1464
ND1460A - HF Neodymium Driver
XT1464 - Constant Coverage HF Horn
18 SOUND_ND1460A ND1460A
18 SOUND_XT1464 XT1464
..if you can take the narrow directivity pattern.. the combination is something of a bargain.

Your Actual Measurement ?
Is that your actual measurement of the Selenium D220Ti in said waveguide?
If so, that's actually pretty good vs some of the curves I have looked at !!
I'll start with my find yesterday:

An externally hosted image should be here but it was not working when we last tested it.

Those look a lot like mine with the 220 and the Dayton except mine are high passed, EQed and taken at the bottom lip of the WG to the HF>15k will droop:

Yes. My own measurement. I was surprised myself. Had them in the garage for a year and never bothered (too skeptical to be that good)
1m, on axis, indoor. 5ms gate. I use them for my dipoles.

Dan, why would you measure at the lip axis?
JBL PT 338800-001 & Clones
This has got to be the darling of Constant Directivity builders, the Econowave cult. Thanks to Zilch.
Cost about $14.
Clones:
Pyle Pro PH612
Dayton H6512
YD-L033 (Australia)
Dr Geddes performed measurement of this waveguide:
The usage of this waveguide is well established:
Econowave Summary (need to register to see pics & plots)
Use Selenium D220Ti or D2500Ti-Nd, 8 Ohms.

Great collection, investigation. Some very respectable WG there:
