What does one purchase after owning horns?
Mapman, I have owned many speakers in my lifetime, and have experienced many more, and agree than many can do many things well. The point that I make is that people should listen to and experience as much as possible, and then decide what is best ...

Mapman, I completely agree with your assessments, although, I still do not think those "non dynamic" live performances are easily duplicated by a system. But it can be close. Whenever I listen, tweak and/or evaluate a system, I bring along two She...

For giggles, I just read Unsound's 2nd post. Are you kidding ? Begging for a rebuttal ? The OP wants something else ? Other designs are capable of the same dynamics ? I will leave it at that !

I will not even try to respond to Unsound, but applaud his exit.

One of the best musical experiences of a non horn system was a pair of MBL 101s in a room that was, admittedly, too small for them(I spent many hours, on different days, listening, as they were owned by a close friend). The sound was incredible an...

T bone You and I (and everyone else other than Unsound)see eye to eye (ear to ear)about Weseixas. They have their description of us(zealots)and we have ours of them(trolls). He speaks nonsense. He has actually made statements about engineers who m...

Weseixas, I try to be nice, and you, must once again, prove you are an A hole. I will say your bug species is more enduring than I had anticipated. Shoo shoo.......

I am not sure how this thread will continue from here, if at all, so I just wanted to say I have enjoyed this "post", even though there were some rough spots. As a horn owner, and more importantly, an audiophile/music lover, I feel that I have mad...

I suggest these "two" read the original op again, and the accompanying paragraph. Very plainly he speaks positively about horns, but not other designs he has listened to. Duh........... Bass to horn integration was what he lacked. He had dynamics ...

Like a fly that I swatted several times, but keeps returning to annoy me. Not a wasp, bee or mosquito, because they inflict pain, but just a fly, a regular household fly, just an annoyance....shoo shoo.
