Bob's High Efficiency System

Many choices,

LS for $900

Edgar style rectangular horn 1" throat; $465 pair

Eliptical tractrix 1" throat, $695 pair

Round fiberglass tractrix $580 pair (Requires driver upgrade)

Mid driver upgrade, $800

Better first order passive crossover $320

Better second order passive xover $730

Best, Marchand three way FET active xover, $750

Mix and match them.

$1950 will get you the bins, an eliptical 300hz tractrix horn with 1" throat adapter, and a first order xover. The ALK Universal will allow you to listen with SET, the Crites won't.

The Yorkville Unitys are only $2,200 and they are a huge leap forward. They just would need bi-amping, and they don't have front horn loaded bass. They do crossover to the mid horn at 300hz.

I think the straight m/b horn combo was something like $2,300.
