Horns with good timbre and tonality?

I’m looking into buying a pair of horns for my next speaker. I sold my Sonus Faber Elipsa SE. Looking for a more realistic, more lively sound. I’ve heard the Triangle Magellan and enjoyed the sound, but wonder if there is better.

I appreciate speed and dynamics with good timbre and tonality. I know horns are good with speed and dynamics, but not sure if they can do timbre and tonality like SF can.

Looking at German Blumenhofer FS1 / FS2, French Triangle magellan, Fleetwood deville, Avantgarde.

It will be paired with Mastersound 845 Evolution SET or Auris Fortissimo amp.

Room size 40 x 15 x 8 feet

Must realistically play Solo Piano, Cello and full scale symphony.

I viewed a used pair of Vittora not to long ago, I cant recall if it was here on AG or USAM. If I had the dough I would have jumped on them. Unfortunately they are a bit out of my reach right now.

If you do biamping using active crossover, it sounds like almost modern speaker. Thomas

Single omnidirectional driver, horn loaded speaker. It will not break the bank by the usual high end standards but not inexpensive either. https://www.german-physiks.com/unicorn-mk-ii-loudspeakers
