Horn speakers , high efficiency but not “shouty”

It seems many don't like horn speakers, I get it, but one bad experience doesn't make for an overarching conclusion. Proper horn loudspeaker design and execution, proper room treatments and sympathetic system matching can bring an illusion of live performers in room that's intoxicating

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sold on horns as best speaker in full orchestra, 
No doubt, But some of us have limitations,
cash and room size. I'm limited in both areas.
Horns will have to wait  as a  distant project, ~~My last speaker~~
I'm convinced horns is the answer to high fidelity. 

Horns, good, better or best just have a different way of presenting music than direct radiating drivers or panel speakers. They all have their charms. I really connected with horn presentation the first time I heard Khorns.
I can surely understand those who feel differently, or those who value ruler flat measurements. The only invalid opinion is the opinion of someone who hasn't really given them a try and believes a negative opinion without self-verification.

2 weeks after I got my horns and tubes, they have burned in for over 300 hrs.
I have been working on room placement with help of Brian Charney the designer , and art noxon and jordon Goulette of asc . We have traded pics , done articulation and frequency sweeps in room and analysed them .
also have ordered better tubes than stock tubes from andy , of vintage tubes .
my experience to date .
the tubes and horn combination is “dirty “ hopefully the newer tubes will better it .
there is not much deep powerful bass. The vocals are little peaked.
this is in comparison to my ayre , magico Jl audio system tweaked to the nth with room treatment etc . Eg. Listened to Steve Earle at 85 db thru my tubes sounded loud and I had to turn it down . Now listening at 95db thru my ayre, magico and it’s so clean ,  I want to play it even louder lol . 

newtoncr,
Excuse me if you have already answered this question, but did you listen to these speakers before you bought them? I'm wondering because full range back loaded speakers have a specific type of sound, and it seems from what you wrote in your last post that you were overall satisfied with your Magico setup.
What were you looking for when you made the change?

@roxy54 
no I hadn’t listened to these speakers before buying them .
I had listened to horn / low watt tube combo in multiple occasions. Always at dealers . Never in the optimal position in my house . I heard a presentation of vocals and instruments that was larger than I was used to . These listening sessions were brief . Other characters which I like like sound stage and depth and weight of music were not my focus during these listening sessions .
I wanted a second system with the larger than life vocals and instruments. I heard about the charneys his matching tubes and also talked to friends who I trust who have listened to the charneys . Due to Covid I couldn’t make the travel so I purchased the speakers and electronics. 
Trust me I think I have got exactly what I expected, the vocals are huge . One of my audiophile friends commented on the larger than life vocals . That was his flavor and he loved it . I am hoping with better tubes than the stock tubes I will be able to get cleaner sound . Tubes are noisy .  I don’t expect deep impactful bass with the horns . And I am not going to mess the tonal balance and unique flavor  by adding a sub . I hope to be very content with the charneys as my second system once I get the room treatment and tubes perfected . A great change in flavor to my main system  perfect after a long exhausting day at work when u want to relax with a pour of whiskey and listen Louis Armstrong and Ella play at around 75-80 db. They will be in the room with you through the charneys.
