Yes... I was referring to his comments... (A flush baffle is just a 180deg waveguide.) and A 180deg waveguide is basically hopeless, and leads to all kinds of problems in the midband power response, because it does not control the dispersion of the tweeter at the bottom of its passband at all.
Yeah, I am pretty sure he was referring to a non-waveguided tweeter with a flat baffle. But I have already discussed why I disagree with this idea and why I even plan on using exactly what he said as hopeless in my current speaker design a couple posts back. Proper integration is key. Ambient field effects will change, but these can all be dealt with using proper planning and design.

I am not aware of any either. I really haven't even studied the ML philosophy for that matter. I just can't get over how much I like the sound... even if someone discovers they are design flawed. In that case I would say I am glad they erred.
Then enjoy and don't worry about it .
