It depends a great deal on the AMT and horn though, so a general description is hard. There are very popular makers with AMTs I hate (Golden Ear) and some I love ( Monitor Audio ). I wouldn’t be able to say "You should buy a speaker with AMTs!" Same for horns. The best AMTs vanish. You stop listening for their characteristics, have high dynamic range and sound equally good played loud. The best horns have extremely good dynamic range and help work with a variety of rooms.
