Haven't built or heard any such beasts, but at least a couple of designs in the literature come to mind. Voigt's domestic corner horn, using the ancestor to the Lowther drivers, front loaded the 8" driver with a horn that terminated with a big clamshell shaped reflector on top, and rear loaded the driver with some sort of labyrinth that exhausted at the ground. Harry Olson designed a compound horn for RCA that front loaded an 8" driver with a short horn in front, and a complex folded rear horn for the low frequencies. These were used in some of the early to mid 1930s Photophone theatre systems.
