Please list a few companies producing high quality horn speakers that would couple well with low powered SETs. I only know of Avantgaurd.

May I suggest the Lowther. They have several horn configerations. If you really want to see something incrediable, check out April issue of "Hi-Fi News & Record Review" page 59, the "Carfrae Horn" for the Lowther. For us more lowly types, consider the Medallion II and the Faircurve ii.

I'll have some photos of a new Lowther front horn, called Deep Throat, in the next issue of cyberVALVE, which should be up in a week or two. It does require a subwoofer.

Hey Doc, is cyberValve a webzine? Could you pass on the URL? Thanks much!

For another front loaded Lowther horn, check out the Oris 150, designed to handle down from highs down to 150 Hz, still needs a subwoofer or bass horn. A pair (without drivers) go for $700. See http://orion.it.luc.edu/~tronan/
