Horn speakers are really bright?

So I’m trying to understand why so many people think klipsch or horn speakers are bright 

I have two  set up garage and living room both with horn speakers EPIC CF4 garage and and KLF 30 mahogany living room  

I have recorded this songs with my iPhone  listen to them and feel free to tell me what you don’t like about them
 by the way I don’t have any room treatment

lordrootman,

congrats on the kids!  I have a 4yr and a 4 month old. My 4 year old daughter is great about not messing with my gear but it is her friends/cousins I have watch out for. My main system is in my basements with a locked door so no worries there but my other two systems made up of “old” gear (still very nice stuff) have a short life I am sure as they are in the main part of the house.

Western Electric horns sound wonderful, sounding like live music. But still need an appropriate space and room treatments.

@james633 
garage is my main (MANCAVE) and for some reason they love garage more than living Room but I think is the nature of the beast 
wherever I am they will follow me and leave mom alone 😂😂😂
living Room set up is 7.2 with built in 2 channel lol Parasound Hint6 or P6  works like magic when it comes to two channel  bypass

Lordrootman, much better recording, still we're dealing with cel phone and YouTube. I find the KLF to be too forward in the mid and highs. Extended, not bright, but would cause me listener's fatigue. Maybe could be helped with room treatments.
The garage system sounds more balanced, I like the speakers.
