...and that "direct radiator" sound, too, I might add. FM and AM distortion figures (see Klippel) for the DRs are going to be about 20 dB higher than even the "low efficiency horns" (about 5-10% efficient), especially in the LF where all the distortion products are going to be extremely audible at HT/HE listening levels.
Tom also mentions the point source thing too, which is going to be a really big auditioning discriminator. YMMV.
