Horns: Why don't they image well?

@ wolf_garcia

Been there done that Wolf, check out my post 4 back.

Cheers George 

120 db spl ? Are you kidding me. You think this is why I like horns. Again, clueless. I compare systems to live, unamplified music. The further you are from the musicians, the less specific the image is of the location of the performers. 50 plus years of listening, using my ears, experimenting and setting up all sorts of gear ( home and pro ), being on stage, behind the stage, in studios, and, more homes than I can count, I am happiest with what my modified, updated and tweaked Lascalas, and what they present to " me " ( especially at the ridiculous low cost of them ). That is all that matters. There are so many aspects of sound, related to music. Arguing and discussing this back and forth is ridiculous. I am glad you guys have found your areas of happiness. Enjoy all ! MrD.

Kosst, To each his own. I am not sure you wrote want you really wanted to say. In your latest description above, you gave Kudos to what you heard. Besides, I am not trying to dismiss anything you say, nor any opinion you have. Early on when we first communicated, you indicated you did not like the sound of live horns, as well as many other live instruments, which was interesting to me, as you, and other members of your family, played instruments. I understand the fact that you prefer hifi sound as opposed to live sound. Your last statement is amusing. Again, enjoy your dynamic speakers, as I will enjoy my horn speakers. No need to continue on this path. It is all about the music. Enjoy !MrD.
