Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: "Lower efficient speakers, for what reason?"

Disagree a bit and would point out that most modern dynamic designs use wave guide on tweeter these are horns with a different name Look at YGA and many others check out how dome tweeters are built today compare to older designs you will see the horn used to control directivity. Horns are plentiful affordable not hard to design science for horns is old and easily available. Sure if one looks only at the insane high-end horn market prices could seem off but many manufacturers offer quality horns for home use at sane prices that dont require massive spaces another myth about horns. You do realize much of today's recorded music was mastered on horns many of these in semi near-field setups. Sure the best in horns can get large and appearance is always a mater of taste this I agree with.
