Waveguide Loudspeakers


Has anyone compared the Waveguide loudspeakers like Amphion, Zingali, SP Technology, Gedlee, Genelec, Nuforce, etc? Any similarities, differences, What's good , what's bad? Is one more musical than another, more live sounding, better with different types of music/

I wouldn't disagree with the above description of the Zingalis I own, but I'd add that the "forward" character described above by DV only becomes apparent at pretty high spl (IMHO). I suspect that, as the volume goes up, the woofers begin to compress more quickly than the horn loaded tweeter. Other than this phenomenon, The Zingalis strike me as quite neutral octve to octave and much less colored than some other horns I've heard (e.g. SAP).
Martykl - your spot on. They do get a wee-tad shouty at very high SPL levels - but they are one of the best sounding horn speakers I've heard in a very long time. The timbre is extremely neutral.

It is said that they use modified JBL compression drivers in the tweeter section of the Zingali's.

The best high frequencies I have heard from a waveguide loaded unit was undoubtedly the Gryphon Trident.Absolutely neutral and completely character free.
