Horns work great at ball diamonds!
Has anyone heard the newest version of the Klispschhorm?
I watched a YouTube of Robyn of Robyatt Audio.
A long standing Quad 57 man, he has taken the ESS rebuild to the max now with a new, fairly extreme wooden frame.
Very interesting that in this video he abandons his push of the Quads and now raves about the new Klipschhorns. Even saying that they are the best speaker regardless of price!
The new KHs are now in much improved enclosures with sealed backs making them now best away from corners into the room. But what about the sharp, honking sound of the horns? But for a diehard Quad guy to now say that the new KHs are better than the $100K+…? I was also a diehard Quad guy until I decided that I wanted bass and treble, and most of all, dynamics! There is no question that the KHs are that. I never owned KHs but did once have Heresys. I will never forget that blaring tweeter!

I own both AG Duo Omega G2's and 75th Anniversary K-horns. They are both terrific. I prefer the K-horns matched with tube amplification (right now I am using a Willsenton R800i with NOS tubes) and the AG's with a vFET preamplifier and Aleph 60 clones. For life-like reproduction of music's scale and dynamics, they are VERY, VERY hard to beat! :) |
@johnk -- Great looking horn setup there. 4-way with bass horns in the background? |
