Good, Affordable Horns?

Pi Speakers. They have quite a following and are very reasonably priced. Can be had for a steal if you buy the kit.

I've gotten some good leads from this thread. Thanks.

My concern with most of the horn loaded designs I've seen in my price range will be bass. I don't think I would be happy replacing any speaker pairs I have with anything horn loaded that did not extend down at least in to the 40hz range.

My room is only 12'X 12'. Corner horns, like a pair of used Klipschorns could work nicely and even benefit me otherwise by opening up more floor space, but I'm wondering if the room is too small for even the Khorn bass design to meet my needs?

Any thoughts on a pair of Khorns in a smaller 12X12 room?

Another thing I am afraid of is that any horn loaded design will blast me out of the room right out of the gate with my current amp, a 150 w/ch SS Musical Fidelity.

This horn thing is starting to sound more and more like not such a good idea in my case.....

In a 12' x 12' I would be perfectly happy with KLF-20's or Chorus II's and a SET or PP tube amp.

I think you need to consider some of the other excellent offerings from Klipsch that use woofers for the lows.

You really need to personally audition a good SET or PP tube amp with some Klipsch or other horn speakers.

Hey Mapman,Just because its a horn doesnt mean they only crank.I have a giant horn system in my office it uses 8-15in woofers in front horns with comp mid and tweeter horns. I can sit as close as 6ft from it, loudspeaker can play at a very low level or crazy loud whatever you want. Also have run them on amps from 200watts class a SS to 10 watt SET tube. If its too loud just turn your volume control down like you would do with any loudspeakers. So dont be afraid of horns they dont bite.
