Trelja just emailed a link to his post here about his visit to the 2006 New York VTV show.
We were talking about Cayin, but i see he mentioned a speaker I was not aware of, the Horning. Being very impressed with Trelja's insight and knowledge on fine audio, i thought I'd atke a look at this Horning he mentioned in his post. I looked at the web site and the model that strikes me most is the Perikles. Has a 12 inch Beyma for deep bass, the fullrange Lowther that meets the Lotus tweet at 6Khz. Very intering speaker I must say.
Now here's the first speaker atht I've come across that might give the Seas'/Tyler a run for the money.
Here's the deal. With Horning, best amps are 300B, and the awesome 845 tube. Single ended/low watt.
Whereas the seas' , Tyler's, 3 way, 8 inch basswoofer, 7 midwoofer, with the Millenium T25, might be driver with a Kt88 or KT90 amp.
Could be an interesting showdown. With possibly neither losing to the other.
Lets see if we can set something up there in Philadelphia at Trelja's place.
I know Joe has the Jadis DA60 for the Tyler and if someone could bring a cayin or Jadis 300B for the Perikles, we might have a nice (UNREAL!) audio session.
Whats the price of the Perikles, $8K?
I've not heard a Lowther in yrs, but have some idea.
