Hi Jim, when it comes to the Imperials, I wouldn't question your observation. From my limited experience with them, I find they are 'freaky', in a nice way and defy ordinary logic. Waiting for Jake to get himself together and get down here and help finish Imperial Number 2. He's not travelling too well at the moment, life in turmoil, poor lad. But we've all been there, one way or another. The Imperial's are a good way to unwind and set the mind on higher things!
Tried getting my young son, 'Little Gaz' (he's six feet tall), to help screw some braces together, but he lacks the weight and strength to hold things together. Besides which he'd be no help if we managed to get the speaker together and then had to shift it. My friends all seem to have bad backs, poor sods and my Dad has been hit with his first bad back ever.
Is this starting to sound like a tale of woe? Sorry Jim for hacking your topic. But I'm hanging out to hear more of the Imperials wonderful freakiness myself.
I can't think how placing the amp in the mouth of the Imperial could affect the sound quality (that is - amp output), but I'd bet the Imperial, because it adds energy to large volumes of air, is more sensitive to air temp/humidity/density variations than your average speaker, and objects placed in the horn could alter its response in an audible way.
Cheers,
Gary
