To horn or not to horn


I have never owned a horn speaker. I’m curious if there are any who are first time horn speaker owners after having owned other types of speakers for many years, and are you glad you switched?

@mrdecibel not at all, the music between sets was 100 db peaks.... glad I gave up rock shows 4 ish nights a week... I had my hearing checked for work for years, while I am retired now - I am also keeping a weather eye on it...
@mrdecibel so true, I have fond memories mixing sound on my stacked pair of LaScala in  medium size juke joints...small places could get by with one pair, the smallest I could use Community cabs packed w JBL components.... glad I gave that up, I can still hear :-)
Hopefully nobody quits if things stay civil...

while my modified Cornwall’s are gone to a buddy in the mountains, I have a bit of experience with horns and can appreciate what they get right , but I also own Vandersteen, Thiel, Apogee and Quads and find their virtues compelling and equally imperfect in other ways... unamplified acoustic instruments in reverberant space on digital and high speed tape are my Reference- enjoy the music and the journey:-)
