Pearl Acoustics Sibelius vs Horning Hybrid Aristotle

I've heard Hornings several years back, very clean sounding but lacked bass definition and impact IMO. 

Speakers based on the Audax AM21LB driver are seriously good and can fill a large room with sound. This is a seriously underrated speaker, because it's really just a DIY kit. But you can buy an assembled pair from several manufacturers. 

Single driver speakers are pretty unique in their sound. That Pearl Acoustics speaker looks like a Mark Audio Pencil which I built a while ago. Putting a 6 or 8 inch full range in a great room or large room it's not going to do as well as if you have a smaller room. 

Also, I wouldn't compare a single driver to a standard speaker (The Horning or anything else), they're two different animals. 

Hi, I’ll start by mentioning that I carry Horning Hybrid loudspeakers (https://gestalt.audio) so please take what I write with the appropriate amount of salt.

Horning is quite special. No crossover, very efficient (happy with a few watts in average rooms), extraordinarily coherent, great bass. They make no compromises on the top or bottom. They’re complete in a way I find is rare. Attractive too, in my opinion.

I can’t speak to Pearl Acoustics but feel free to reach out if you have questions about Horning.
