Are Horn Speakers good or bad or simply a complete joke?

anyone responding with " simply a joke" may ship their horns c.o.d.

I have owned a pair of Klipsch corner horns and a pair
of Klipsch Lascala's in the past and thought they both
sounded great! Tube amps are definately the way to go
with these super efficient speakers. I've had others that
complain about the harshness of the "horn sound", but they
will play very loudly with little power!

The harshness is the source not the speakers.Listen with a viynl set up.Digital is the joke.

Older horns can still sound really good in properly set up. Klipsch, JBL and Altec Lansing sometimes still give me goosebumps when I hear them at my dad's.

I switched to horns 5 years ago and have never looked back--but ,of course,I attend live music 40 or 50 times a year--both old Altec VOTTs and Edgarhorns. my good friend JGH agrees with me 100%
