The rest is out somewhere, but I can't grab it.
I've got an ancient [Win95 era] scanner; any idea if it will work properly on a several year old HP 450 G3 i5 64 bit ProBook/Win7 pro laptop without messing anything up?

To each his/her own, but I've never understood the hassle with multiple (>3) horn channels. Many multiple horn threads appear to be never-ending stories in which considerable amounts of money are wasted.
Yesss Sir, I am exclusively using HP Pro gear for this and other reasons.
My 20 year old HP network laser printer still works like a charm, even with iPhones and iPads using HP's OSX app.
Is it a ScanJet 5P, or a 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000-series?

Now you make me feel bad that I let the salesman convince me to recycle mine for a new Canon. 🙁

Yeah I was just considering the constrast of jmlc and tractrix in the arena of a single horn per side system.

It's part of the system (my background) called free-market economics, which is based on continuous growth. One of the instruments is boosting replacement purchases, preferably by "higher-end" substitutes.
"Higher-end" usually has little to do with intrisic product quality.
I think most of us have come to realize that the current trend of "making everything GREEN" is simply a new incentive for many business models.
This "disease" has to be cured, someday sometime.
So far for being OT.

ScanJet 3300C and just remembered I was given a Canon CanoScan N670U that supposedly was functional at the time, but have yet to try it.

Understood and assumed as much, but rather than mess with it [don't remember the model number, but it was a huge floor model printer, scanner, FAX business machine] I bought a Canon ImageClass LBP 6000 on sale online from a different vendor and combined with some 'first time customer' and Visa card credits got it for < $20 delivered to my doorstep.
Anyway, will try to install one or the other after bills are paid just in case I crash it. I've a long history of making computers get screwed up in ways that the techies say isn't possible. 🙁

We return now to our regularly scheduled program. 😉
Also unless you are still in your early 20's (Which I doubt looking at your user name) having the response fall away beyond 10KHz is no problem.
oh yes 🙂 🙂

It seems you'd better use some third party scan software for the HP, even though I got the original XP driver to work in Windows 10.
It requires injecting some .dll files. Probably not something you'd like to do.
There's more info in this link
Apparently not.
Scanners are divergent from most hardware peripherals, because they need special drivers and software containing (old) Twain and WIA protocols in order to work, many of which are no longer supported by Microsoft.
However, workarounds and third party solutions exist.
The Canon CanoScan N670U is a more recent device and should work without issues. If necessary, the driver can be downloaded here (official Canon site).
You'll have to install the (Windows XP) driver in compatibility mode, or use the Windows generic TWAIN scanner driver.

what is the horn in SE-MF-2?
some say JBL 2386
from the pictures it seems more a 2380 or 2382
look at the slot in the 2380 and 2382 is is narrow and long
in the 2385 2386 it is shorter and wider, near square

so maybe 2380 + 2446 + SL aquaplas diaphragms could be a good combo?
they are going to 450hz crossover on the 2380A for the new version se-mf-2.1 ???
any compare of SE-MF-2 with JBL M2?

I forget, is the 2380 constant directivity? And if so how does it do that without a dispersion slot?
Maybe don’t answer that question, the Seos are CD too right and no dispersion slot there as well.....

The Faital HF206 is a 'proven' combo with the P-Audio PH-2380 and not too expensive either.
What are the differences between those two Faital 204 and 206?
Yes, diffraction slot. I used the 2380 in this system: Cornscala Style C | Critesspeakers.com It sounded pretty good with the Selenium D405 midrange driver. But suffered from horn honk at higher volumes. While spec'd for 500 Hz XO, the response dropped off considerably below 800 Hz, so a 850 Hz XO was chosen instead. Sure liked the Crite's 15" woofer.

- Is it possible to cover the whole spectrum, high SPL, low distortion with a 2-way?
