'stats & horns

'Stats and horns are usually at opposite ends of the spectrum as far as amplifier requirements, though powerful OTLs or beefy SETs can work well on 'stats (the latter with somewhat limited SPL capability). But that's definitely the exception to the rule.

I've gravitated toward these two types as generally capturing more of the magic of a live performance than conventional cones & domes typically do, though each of the three types excels in capturing different aspects of that magic.

I think the holy grail may be an electrostat with the dynamics and impact of a horn, or a horn with the openness and low coloration of a 'stat.
