In Reply to: Single Driver Speakers for Mahler, Bruckner, et al.? posted by hapinoregon on January 29, 2015 at 16:34:37:
In my view, it all depends on your depth of listening experience on different systems. A lot of people move from a mass-market speaker system to a single-driver and are happy with the results for a while. Over time, these people find the downside of the single-driver...especially in the lower frequencies (especially mid-bass). I have four systems at the moment including back-loaded horns, vintage horns, large front-loaded horns, and co-axial horns. Each has pros and cons, some more than others. But, if you're trying to re-create Bruckner or Mahler (or any dynamic symphonic music) on single-driver (so-called "full range"), don't listen to the same music on a very large system or you'll be disappointed with just how "full range" and dynamic the single driver *really* is.
