U wrote "the altecs do that compression driver thing... insane midrange dynamics, but still colored like a horn a tiny amount... " That is it ! I have found titnaium diaphragms for ~$60 pair, may be them help 290's decreace "horn coloration" ? Also if you want to buy titanium diaphragm for 288's, I can help you, just mail me.

Not only that range, also in upper-mid Lowthers get not peaky, get "everestly peaky" .. Oris horn ;(
