Why not horns?
Vernneal - That's subject to personal circumstances. My horns are 24" wide by 21" deep by 52" tall. Not small and not enormous. Because they are back near the front wall, their space consumption isn't particularly egregious, however, the 18" diame...

They do. In fact, many people would say they sound a lot better than they look. They were designed for OMA by Bill Woods.

Gawddamn, gawdbless, your jokes are terrible. And don't seem to segue too well into this discussion. Lousy, unfunny, awkward and inappropriate. It appears to me that only a handful of the thousands of people who use horn based speaker systems worl...

Here we are at half-time in the World Cup Final and I have to revise a comment I made a while ago. I called the Dutch physical. After watching a half where they should have wound up playing with only 9 guys on the field, I want to say that the Dut...

Interesting article, Duke, although much of it went over my head. I've seen a lot of references over the years to the JBL K-2 and Everest speakers as if they represent a pinnacle of speaker design. Do you know anything about them and how well they...

Mapman - Part of my intent here is to elicit testimony from people like myself who found an affordable way to put together a good horn system.T-bone - I suspect you are right. I know a couple of guys in other parts of the country who have Oris and...

Learsfool - You are certainly welcome. I had high hopes that horn lovers would come out of the woodwork and learn about each other and share their info about who is making and offering horn products and about shortcuts, bargains or mods that might...
