Regarding horn use and abuse, I use a pair of Mackie 10" 2 way P.A. passive (passive aggressive) speakers (with a beefy Mackie sub since they’re good to maybe 60hz) daily for my mindless but important electric guitar noodling in my mindless noodling studio setup. Note that the these little gems are the original version that cost around 300 bucks a pair new and seem to be made from some sort of plastic cement (heavier than the latest "neo" magnet woofer version which I imagine also sound real good). Interestingly, if you put recorded music through these (as opposed to my noodling tracks) it sounds sort of great. Heresy again. Plus, I’m not sure I spelled "noodling" correctly but it looks right.
Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy?
As just another way to build a loudspeaker system why such disputes in forums when horns are mentioned? They can solve many issues that plague standard designs but with all things have there own. So why such hate? As a loudspeaker designer I work with and can appreciate all transducer and loudspeaker types and I understand that we all have different needs budgets experiences tastes biases. But if you dare suggest horns so many have a problem with that suggestion..why?
