Why not horns?

In these depressive times of big brother cock ups, its nice to hear someone that is busy now, and tomorrow.

Jeff1225- If you read back through this and other horn threads you will find my system described and justified for critics exhaustively. There are links to manufacturers demonstrating and explaining components such as horn, driver, crossover, woofer, etc. I have included links to photos and links to articles that I felt might be helpful.

If you are referring to a link next to my signature like you have, I don't know how to do that. It would probably be a useful shortcut for me though.

I have been living with a pair of Morrow Audio MA3 interconnects between my dac and preamp for the last month or so(after break in)and I want to say my system has NEVER sounded better....modified Lascalas......(not talking about my vinyl).....

I am planning on testing the Faital pro 2" compression driver in a horn in the next few weeks. The Faital driver is considered the best compression driver that US Speaker sells (according to Al, the owner of usspeaker) with a very flat response 500hz-18khz and ultra low distortion. It will be crossed over with an active 48dB slope to my 18" drivers, which will handle below 500hz (and they do so QUITE well).

They will be good competition for my 15" Audio Nirvana Full-Range drivers, which I found to be some of the best speakers I've ever heard regardless of price.

My system is a high-resolution DSP-based system with amplification of my own design. If the horns are distorting I'll know it right off the bat.

I'll post back with my findings once I get around to putting this project together.

I've thought these to be interesting:
