Why not horns?

I've owned a lot of speakers over the years but I have never experienced anything like the midrange reproduction from my horns. With a frequency response of 300 Hz. up to 14 Khz. from a single distortionless driver, it seems like a no-brainer that everyone would want this performance. Why don't you use horns?

What's your point, Jw? I choose to use horns because they ARE closer to live to my ear.

JW, I think big horns get "live" better than any other kind of speaker I have heard.

JW-

Unless the "LIVE" event is a rather intimate venue, it will reach your ears via horns. Did you know that? If so, why the remark?

The thread started a long time ago and wandered pretty far afield at times, but my aging memory thinks the subject of live music was broached more than once. That's only natural since horns are the undisputed best choice for professional sound reinforcement.
