I'm sure that Alan tried them in a number of possible combinations. For instance, I only use one on my third valve, since any more than that is too sluggish for my taste. This is going to vary from horn to horn, but one on the third valve will tend to have more impact than one on the 1st valve.

Just don't assume it's an all or nothing proposition. Try a variety of combinations. Experiment.
