Hi efficient speaker, bass problems

Another horn bashing post. This is great if all had horns then the audio markets would dry up since all would be listening to much to care about upgrades so slam horns dont try them,post wrong biased opinions, leave them for me and other wise audiophiles..

For those that might not know, JohnK is a manufacturer of horn loudspeakers.

All forums have bashers....and defenders.

I am a fan of facts and honest opinions, but not "bashing". It is usually not very productive.

I suppose its part of human nature and hard to resist the urge sometimes....

"Sad, but True".

Weseixas, that TAD driver I mentioned can cross over easily at 500Hz. So it can be matched with a horn midrange easily enough. I've seen some such horns have good response to 17KHz, although for what I want to call 'hifi' I would want to supplement that with a super tweeter at least.

OTOH you could cross over to a smaller Lowther or the like, but IMO its still nice to have a super tweeter so you can have a wider sweet spot.

I just reread this thread, and I don't see any "horn bashing" posted anywhere.
As far as the "free lunch", well, it's been my experience that one usually gets what one pays for. Even the example that Atmasphere offers, is far from free.
