Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy?

As just another way to build a loudspeaker system why such disputes in forums when horns are mentioned?    They can solve many issues that plague standard designs but with all things have there own.  So why such hate?  As a loudspeaker designer I work with and can appreciate all transducer and loudspeaker types and I understand that we all have different needs budgets experiences tastes biases.  But if you dare suggest horns so many have a problem with that suggestion..why?

Wolf, these?

Those are exactly the ones I would go for.    Sounds like you got them for a nice discount.

If they don't work out, I might take them off your hands.   Seriously!

Now you can try those fancy fuses again to go with the fancy speakers as well!

What are they replacing again?

Enjoy!

Congrats on the Klipsch Specials Wolf. I was looking at those for a while as well as the JBL 4319 monitors over at MusicDirect. I'm tired of trying to find that speaker that fits the audiophile mold and just enjoy the music like I used to when younger.

I particularly like the low slung look: very mid century which matches my living room. Do you think that 7 1/2' back and about 8' apart would work in a small room and is the bass reinforced enough to bring it up to the level of the horns presence?

All the best,
Nonoise
