Horn speakers with Imaging?


Do horn speakers really offer good Imaging? My SAP J2001mkII do offer great clarity and revealing music, but no Imaging.

Does everyone have the same definition of imaging?  In audio terms, what doe that word mean?

Imaging is not the strong suit of the motherload of horn speakers out there...But, there are some exceptions. You can go with the high end JBL/Everest line if you're not on a constrained budget....They are ok with imaging.

But, if you are strapped for cash...You ever heard of JTR speakers? Typically, hometheater guys who also float on the audiophilia boat tend to get these. Nevertheless, these can image quite good in addition to slamming the living daylights out of you. They do look ugly as fk though (like most horn speakers).

I had great dynamics but minimal imaging until I followed Jim Smith’s setup procedure for my Avantgarde Duo’s. Taking time to really try different, repeatable steps and moving away from the rear wall now gives a wide and deep soundstage. However, the imaging only really works in my listening spot. 
 

My wife enjoys music and likes listening with the system but isn’t at all interested in sitting in the sweet spot. Her view is that at a concert (blues/rock) you don’t hear pinpoint sources. However, she does like the dynamics and feeling of being at the venue that you can get with horns.
