Sorry, horns belong on the top of poles at high school football stadiums, not in boxes in your house. Not sure if they are still around, but Cerwin-Vega made some wildly loud speakers for many years. Not very accurate, but certainly better than any horn. If they are not around any more, ask for some super-efficient speakers at your dealer and I am sure they will have some. Cheers!

Tell you what, go to your Klipsch dealer and listen to a spoken voice and then do it with, oh, I don't know, an ACCURATE speaker like one from Magnepan that does not color the sound. Or, you could do what we used to do at my shop. Put your hands on your face in the shape of a horn and speak to someone and then move them away. Hear the difference? No? Then buy whatever garbage horn you love, pal. Cheers!
