Loudspeakers with horn or ceramic tweeter?


Hello, I'm buying free-standing speakers, but I don't know if I should take speakers with a horn (Zingali) or with a ceramic tweeter (Gauder akustik) I am interested in your experiences. Now I have speakers with an AMT tweeter, I like the detailed sound, but I have no experience with horns, but they tempt me. The amplifier is an integrated hybrid 120W / 8 ohm.

Thank you.

You can’t just say you have AMT’s and compare them to a random ceramic.

We could, maybe, talk general tradeoffs among the very best of each. Horns may ignore the room and offer exceptional imaging, exceptional dynamic range and relatively easy loads. Great matches for modest amps in troublesome rooms.

In terms of the very best AMT’s and best ceramics, I have never heard a true ceramic driver I could fall in love with.

Now, are the speakers you are listening to anything like my general impressions? I have no idea, so you absolutely must listen.
