So I was planning to order some tractrix horns from stereo-lab.de. I've noticed that the store part of the website has been done for a while so I sent an email. It turns out the owner died suddenly and unexpectedly. His wife responded as such as said she is working on finding someone to take over.

I'm very sorry to hear this. I always respected that he used artificial stone to make his horns. That told me he cared about horns.
I just checked the site after a long time. He had been busy. First thing I went to was the 140hz horn with 2" mouth. Artificial stone? One horn weighs 61 lbs / 28kg !! Man, he took horns seriously!
It is sad news for horn lovers.
Josh, just remember Autotech might not last forever either. I say get it while the getting's good.

Big speakers and little amps blew my mind!
I bought some from him on eBay back in 2004 or 2005 when they were really inexpensive, and mine were cast polyester resin sprayed with texture coat...hence the "stone" coating.
That's interesting. I would have preferred the polyester, and the cheaper price. You have to give it to him, he never deviated from the tractrix curve, for good or bad.What's the Fc of your horn?

I think they were either 350 or 400 hertz...been years since I had them.
Hi Josh...couldn't find a website, are these round horns,
anything special about them?. What are you looking for?.
website is http://stereo-lab.de/
I was considering the 190hz Tractrix. I don't know anyone other than Autotech that makes horns that large (~24" diameter).

Azurahorn, assuming he is still in business, have several big ones - but you'd need to freight them somehow.
I have put in a link to a build technique that doesn't require too much DIY finesse, to make whatever size horn you fancy.
That looks like a neat project.
