Horns with good timbre and tonality?
I've heard several Horn brands but the ones that stand out at least for my taste are Odeon speakers from Germany. Most engaging and organic Horns i've ever heard. This is what i would get if i wanted to buy Horns. https://www.odeon-audio.com/

Nice pair of Walnut CS 3.7s, they have the lastest COAXES like the ones i have : https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lisb6j32-thiel-cs3-7-full-range

Check my system page i put 2 photos of my new Coaxes. I can tell you it's really worth the upgrade, my 3.7s have never sounded that good!!

Well that’s it guys my 3.7s are like new, we mounted the new black Coaxes. I feel they do sound much better than the original chrome ones. The level of clarity is insane with the black ones just as if my 3.7s were upgraded. Really worth it guys... 
What is the most powerful SET tube amplifier?
Today it's most likely the NAT Audio Magma Evo 170w class A with the huge GM-100 tube.

Hi guys, I've ordered 2 new Coaxes for my 3.7s from Rob hope to get them by next week. It's a shame the new ones are black on the outside, hope they are just as good as the original ones ?

Next week i’ll investigate with a friend who has some soldering gear. There is a wire on the crossover board that that went off several months ago. At the time i used super glue to stick the wire back on the board, it worked for the past 3 month...

Hi guys, bad news for me, i have one bass driver on my CS 3.7s that suddenly stopped working and the Coax is sizzling. There is no more sound coming from this bass driver, any idea if it's dead and should i order a new one ? My 3.7s are about 12...

@tubesrule  VAC Master if you can afford one is difficult to beat.  
???Can Anyone Comment on Current Production Odeon Audio Speakers???
I’ve heard the flagship Odeon Carnegie at the Munich show this year. Definitely best of show at least in my book. Extremely engaging horn speakers!!
