Horns fell out of favor due to there lack of color and tone . Others called them shouty as well. I know from experience and ownership. I own La Scalalas and Heresys (my first '76) still match ok with small old McIntosh. But the big ones yep 15 inch non breathable woofeers still a struggle.
inherent design flaws with a 3 way, 15" / 8" / horn (large tower) speaker?
hello
I see precious few classic large 3-ways (15" woofer 8" mid and a large horn) being developed these days, at least amongst the speaker designers I run across.
Is there an INHERENT reason, other than size, why a large tower-style speaker can't match the musicality of what seems to be the dominant designs these days (2-way bookshelf, or MTM)?
