Nuforce STA200
Well, I have been rotating amps in my collection, to determine which I should sell, and which to keep. I am still amazed, listening with the Nuforce STA 200 in my system. I cannot complain about it, tear it apart, want for anything. It does not ha... 
K-horn won't fit, any other corner speakers recommended for a big room?
Although the newest Khorn has a fully enclosed bass horn, it allows the Khorn to be out " a bit " from the corner, and you can adjust the toe in to the listening seat. However, they still use the corners to get the optimum balance out of them. Do ...

Transmission line speakers!
Roxy, do you understand that our ears are mini speakers, playing a role in reverse. Does not matter if the output is from the front.or the rear of the driver, imo. A mic is a mini speaker l8ke our ears in reverse.  
Transmission line speakers!
Khorn. A transmission line with a fold or two. Just my interpretation, as I am no speaker designer. PWK could have ported it, but would not get the efficiency of a true horn, nor the quality of output. Transmission loaded, ime, always had folds wi... 
Transmission line speakers!
