Some folks just can't tolerate the HONK HONK SQUAWK of horns.
I've tried SO hard. I LOVE so much of what some of those super-efficient designs can do.
NO horn design that I have actually heard, from ANY form of Klipsch, to CAR (Classic Audio Reproductions), to Avantgarde Acoustics has been acceptable to me. MANY of them get the dynamics right, but every damn one has me running from the room post haste. :(
p.s.? A heavily modified CAR T1 was the closest I ever got to a sound I could live with...
