Thanks for everyone's comments, and why is a fair question.
While my current speakers do not incorporate a HF compression horn, I'm leaning that way for my next build (and using my ST120 for the mid and high frequency sections, so not too concerned about affects on bottom end), and I've read that slight adjustments to feedback can make subtle enhancements to sound of a horn (not looking to remove all NFB). Similar are comments of people positively comparing their horns when moving from solid state amps to tubes.
Before my ST-120 I was using a small adjustable tube buffer pre- my solid state amp and found- subjectively of course, an improvement in sound.
Then I saw this Hafler HA75 Tube head amp with adjustable negative feedback;

If I could only leave well enough alone- but that's 1/2 the fun of this.
