Why not horns?

2 X 15" woofers and +/- 3 db 45 Hz, I'm not impressed. The 4 Ohm load might not be too appealing to many horn enthusiasts either.

That would probably work against using most tube amps home audio enthusiasts often look to for use with high efficiency speakers.

Could see it fit easily for pro use where SS is the norm.

Also I suppose the 4 driver approach would enable higher volumes with less distortion/breakup, which would be beneficial to pro applications in particular where good sound at high volume is needed in larger rooms using not many watts. Those watts would probably be SS state though.

Gotta keep in mind that pro audio requirements are different than home audio. I'm sure the speakers would sound at least OK in smaller quarters aat most volumes one would attempt, but the strength of the design would seem to be more in the pro applications as described.

Same old story -- experts emerge with judgements concerning the probability ( in their expert opinion) that the speaker they see on paper cannot sound good. They have doubts. Never mind that it is a widely applauded, eagerly received triumph of design by the acknowledged foremost expert of horn design, an innovator who has successfully challenged the preconceived limits of horn design and left them laughing and patting him on the back. Why should they trust that? Well, they shouldn't. But they might, for once, look into the matter before speaking. You know, have some knowledge, if not first hand, at least info from reliable sources. Or any sources for that matter. Or anything stronger than a self-congratulatory guess.

I haven't heard these. In fact, I never heard my horns before I bought them. I read sources that I felt I could trust and took a leap of faith. Certainly I don't imagine or expect anyone else to do that. But just as you shouldn't go off half cocked and buy something without investigation, you should keep your uninformed opinions where they belong - in your imagination - until you have something with which to form them.

Google is your friend. If you care to look, you will find the experiences and opinions of those who have actually heard these speakers. See what they have to say. Maybe their actual experience may contradict your interpretation of the spec sheet and maybe they'll agree. Maybe you should find out. Or maybe you don't care. In that case it would be reasonable to ask why you issued those observations. Were you trying to be helpful?

Macrojack, same old story indeed. You offered the paper to support your position, but, you object when others use the same offered paper to support a different position. Never mind that those of us that have found horns unsatisfactory, would not be impressed by "experts" in horn design. You suggest that we seek info from a reliable source. I suppose that means we shouldn't consider you a reliable source. Since you don't have any personal experience with the product your promoting, our "self congratulatory guess" is no worse than yours.

You buy stuff without auditioning, but suggest we shouldn't go off half cocked and buy something without investigation. We should keep our opinions in our imaginations, but you should the have right to post your opinions on this forum.

You suggest that we search for the opinions of strangers to find out if their experiences may(?)contradict the specs that you provided(?), for a product your promoting and many of us wouldn't otherwise be interested in. I did bother to open up and read the information you provided. On some level, I really have don't care to purse these speakers much more. Why should I? Decades of experience has suggested to me that pursing these designs are not likely to bear any fruit, and the information you provided doesn't seem to offer anything to change that. What I was trying to do, was offer my take on the same information, albeit different. Yes, by offering a balanced perspective, I was trying to be helpful.
