I have modified khorns I bought an upgrade package from volti audio. 

This included all new drivers and new mid-range horns. I also had a new set of crossovers made this greatly improved the sound quality of the khorns.

I feel they sound best with a tube amp and a turntable. With live records the soundstage is amazing!

I have tried other amps and the sound is different with each one try out some different amplifier's till you get what you are looking for.

Happy hunting!!

 

I have over 30 pairs of speakers, I can change them all the time....Went I get boarded or want a change. There here...lol

There were two instances where horns sounded good. Vintage 1980s Klipschhorn and Acapella Cellini! 

The trick with horns is to take advantage of their controlled directivity- you can use that to minimize side wall reflections, thus allowing them to be smoother than a lot of non-horn systems.
