Yes, they might look impressive. But what about the sound quality?
Funny that there is not a single comment on sound quality from an outsider regarding the sound quality of any particular system but only a few short comments from the original owner only.
The No. 1 8 ways horns system might looks impressive. Based on my experience with multi-ways horn system, electronic x-over and SET amps. This 8 ways horns system with digital source/Solid State electronics will be a total disaster.
This is an expensive PA system that might be good for home theatre only.
Even a simple 2 ways horn speakers with electronic x-over will take you years to tune it right only if you are talented....a 3 ways system will take even longer time....
An 8 ways horn system will take a life time to make it works !!!! And with so many different amps. - impossible !!!
As far as I concern, the NO. 1 system is the best example of showing what one is not suppose to do!
