Loudspeakers with horn or ceramic tweeter?


Hello, I'm buying free-standing speakers, but I don't know if I should take speakers with a horn (Zingali) or with a ceramic tweeter (Gauder akustik) I am interested in your experiences. Now I have speakers with an AMT tweeter, I like the detailed sound, but I have no experience with horns, but they tempt me. The amplifier is an integrated hybrid 120W / 8 ohm.

Thank you.

You need to listen for yourself of course. I auditioned a large set of Zingalis years ago, and they were very smooth and non aggressive. I liked them, but I believe they stopped being sold in this country years ago.

I have never heard a ceramic tweeter but have owned speakers with beryllium and switched over to horns and I don’t see my self going back to box speakers anytime soon.
 

the horns add so much dynamics and just sound more real because of it.  

Ok so I have (like most of us) had many traditional speakers with some tweeters….. My friend has a pair of PBN “M” series. They have a horn and after experiencing the sound dimensions the horn produces I ordered a pair.  I have to say everything in the mid/high section completely changes for the better.  It’s not just “wider” front stage but a more realistic sounding from stage.  Less directional and much more depth.  I’ll put the link here. If you call the owner Peter you’ll learn a lot about his thinking.  Best of luck
