  WE 555 driver with 3A Horn  
  You probably know 3A horn is designed for WE549W or WE551 magnetic driver. I have been using WE555 driver with 3A horn. We can use 3A horn with 555 because attachment size is identical.  
  Key to use 3A horn is ... Hooking this horn with wire in the air it should not touch anything. Because this horn make s very very small vibrations that decorate the sound amazingly.  
 

WE555 with large horn such as 15A, sounds greatly. However it is usually too large to use at home. I am using 555 driver with 3A horn that sounds vividly. 150uF (sometimes 75uF depend on the situation) film capacitor is used between amplifier and driver. Cut off frequency is 66Hz/6dB/Oct. at 150uF. (132Hz/6dB/Oct. at 75uF)

 
 

For higher frequency and lower frequency, I am using Klipsh La Scala speaker system.
