.....as far as horns are concerned......i've yet to be 'moved' by a horn based system. either they have limited bandwidth, some degree of honkyness, or considerable incoherence in the bass.i do enjoy the immediacey and microdynamics......but there also seems to be a lack of 'weight' and 'body'.
in any case, i'm more aware of a speaker signature with horns than the best dynamic speaker systems i have heard.
i'm sure horn lovers have their own dynamic speaker 'bitch' list too.
