Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy?

Thanks,  I want to experiment with SET like a Decware or maybe even build the Decware kit or a Bottlehead.    They are fun to listen to and make me really want to tap my feet...... I was going to sell my current speakers but I'm going to put them in another room, maybe even give them to my son.   

I’ve always felt that a properly set up horn system can give some of the best 3D sound because of its inherent high directionality and ability to avoid comb filtering. I heard a set of Sadurni Acoustics Speakers set up well and the image was absolutely stunning; best I’ve ever heard until I moved one seat to the left or right and the effect was lost. So their great strengths are also their greatest weakness in my opinion. They are gorgeous to look at. If the system was made just for me I’d seriously think about getting a set as I wouldn’t need all the hoops I’ve jumped through to get the same image albeit for a larger audience. 

Listening as a primary activity is rare indeed sometimes I trick people into doing so I turn on the big shearer horns sit them in best spot and say be back in a few mins. More than one who think the hobby crazy has understood why I pursue after but not one has changed how they listen just they sort of understand why I do.

I like horns, except for the fact that they sound shouty, forward, bright, beamy. The older style wood Klp type speakers sound boarning, slow, heavy and us resolving. 

I do like them however, I am no hater.
