The virtue of horn sound
"Bret L" wrote in message
After listening to both commercially manufactured and
homebrew/kit/ DIY-design small speakers for some time,
going back to good BIG horn speakers is a definite
ear-opener. They have an immediacy and punch that is
simply in a different league from even the finest box
speakers, particularly small ones. Larger systems like
Wilson Audio and the larger Genelec active systems (and
not to say the two are identical, indeed, quite
different) have man fine qualities but they never give
the effortless, seemingly infinitely powerful midrange
and treble of a good horn system. The small ones don't
even compete with the bigger box systems.
Never had the pleasure of hearing a Summa, eh Bret?
