Has anyone listened to zHORNS?


They look like a nice speaker. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Pete

I think I might have been one of the first owners of the Heruka-this model uses the 6 in. Fostex driver.I had Tom(the designer)custom build my cabinets at 39 inches tall which is slightly taller than the standard model.I did alot of research about single drivers before purchasing them and felt that having the driver at exactly my ear level might avoid potential "beaming" that some single drivers can exihit.But guess what? No such problem! These things image wonderfully.They have a totally uncolored yet natural and beautiful mid-range and absolutely phenomenal bass.I listen to alot of the better hip hop,pop,and rock music and these babies serve the music extremely well.Hard to believe with just a single driver- I attribute much of this to the rear horn loaded cabinet design and Tom's choice of materials.I think ultimately the magic of these speakers come from the fact there is no crossover.Unless your Albert Von Schweikert or some other near genius,hearing a speaker with no crossover network is darn near a revelatory experience.Those parts,even if there are just a few,do tend to mask some things. So my opinion,Two Ear Drums Up!
