Horns: Why don't they image well?


Anyone have a theory?

I replaced the AA xovers with Volti Audio xovers and damped the mid horn with modeling clay.

Oz,

How much does the Volti Crossovers Improve the sound of the originals? Mine has the AK3 installed. I've already bought the Volti Mid range throat,  and am going to try the original mid range cone to hear what they sound like with a 2" throat, if not very good then will try and save the pennies for the BMS mid range and crossover and........

Sorry Eric for sort of hijacking your post. 
I thought it was a nice improvement. And my AAs had been recapped, the volti was still better .

If I'm not mistaken, if you change to the BMS driver, you can't use the klipsch xover.
yes, I will have to buy a volti crossover to use the BMS mid range cone. Which are about $1300 approx for the pair. I have been talking to a chap who has gone the whole 9 yards with Volti upgrades and he says its absolutely worth the expense.  

I was in the room next to Volti for several years at RMAF, where Greg was showing the Vittoras.  Magnificent speakers.  Being a competitor I really wanted to hear "something wrong": with them, and utterly failed. Kudos to Greg Roberts for his speaker designs, and for making his  expertise available to people with Klipschorns and Klipsch Belles.
