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?

Phusis, I respectfully suggest you read  the thread I previously hyper-linked.
kosst, no one here has ever used the term " perfect ", to describe horns, but, have shown " passion " for their attributes, and more important, preferences to us listeners. There is much passion, all over the ' Gon, about other items and categories as well. This hobby, is all a means, for each of us, to attain the sound each of us is looking for, to bring our recorded music closer to " the real thing ", whatever that might be. Should not be a right or wrong. So, my question to you, would be : Why do you care ? As for the OP ( John K ), I do not see him visiting the Thiel forums, or the Focal forums, telling all those owners that they are deaf, and need to develop a good set of ears. Just stay away, or behave, and all will be good. 
A thread on horns draws those interested in horns so overall more positive things would be said about horns. At the same time it also draws those who are opposed to horns in such a way that they follow any threads on horns posting negative. And that is fine but if all that you get out of these threads is a inability to understand why some have enthusiasm about horns and not even noticing that many including me in the thread orignal ?{ They can solve many issues that plague standard designs but with all things have there own } but with all things have there own would mean horns also have issues so why all the fuss? Why keep insisting that those who enjoy horns never say anything negative when its in the title thread post?
