real horns or horn loaded what's the diff?


Hi Iam considering going to flee powered single ended amps.Since they need very efficient speakers I would like some input on whats better, the real horns like Altec Lansing and Klipsh,or horn loaded like the Lowthers? Do they sound different? I have only heard klipsh and Altec horns,I would be getting a new amp perhaps deware zen or maybe bottleheads S.E.X. amp both are only 2 watts or perhaps David Berings amp but it's only 1 watt.All the single ended triode people say that it's the best!! I would be replacing a pair of Martin Logan Aerius speakers.Can I please have some opinions? thanks ,Nick

Although some may disagree I believe both Altecs and Klipschs both liike more than a little bit of power. Their crossover designs are not the easiest of loads.
