Why not horns?


I've owned a lot of speakers over the years but I have never experienced anything like the midrange reproduction from my horns. With a frequency response of 300 Hz. up to 14 Khz. from a single distortionless driver, it seems like a no-brainer that everyone would want this performance. Why don't you use horns?

JW-

Unless the "LIVE" event is a rather intimate venue, it will reach your ears via horns. Did you know that? If so, why the remark?

The thread started a long time ago and wandered pretty far afield at times, but my aging memory thinks the subject of live music was broached more than once. That's only natural since horns are the undisputed best choice for professional sound reinforcement.
I have indicated many times in my posts that I use live, unamplified music as my reference, as many others have as well. Unfortunately, systems cannot equal it, ime, but can simulate it at various levels (not only spl). MrD
TOUCHY!! TOUCHY!! WHAT WAS I SAID THAT LED YOU TO BELIEVE I WAS NOT A HORNY GUY. I MUST BE WELL HIDDEN IN THE BUSHES!!
HORNS DO NOT HAVE TO PLAY A LOUD AMPLIFIED EVENT IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED RELEVENT.

A SINGE VIOLIN OR PIANO IS THE REAL TESTFOR INSTRUMENTS
It could be that you were SHOUTING!!!

Your first contribution to this thread was also SHOUTING so lots of people may have passed it over. I did. It was also a bit difficult to read (double negative then compared against a single negative).

It could be that your second comment was obviously meant to test participants (though they may not have figured out what it was that you were testing).

I looked through your limited posting history and figured out you were a 'horndog' before I posted, but it would have been easy to jump to conclusions given recent 'difficulties' in hornville.
TOUCHY, MY ASS! ;-) TURN YOUR DAMN CAPS LOCK OFF AND MAYBE PEOPLE WON'T TAKE YOUR POST THE WRONG WAY! ;-)

Otherwise, I agree with you.
