Why not horns?

Macro,

As Ronald Reagan would have said, "there you go again" drawing unsubstantiated conclusions.

How do you know how people read Audiogon threads?

I can assure you a lot more threads are read than people actively participate in.

And its pretty egocentric to think that if they are not chirping in on your thread that it is Audiogon's fault.

It is a safe bet most likely though that the majority of people out there using horns or any other speaker type are content just enjoying music on them and do not need or care about outside info from Audiogon or any other audio centric site.

For those that do care about horns and their place in niche high end audio world specifically, Audiogon is surely the place to be. But for those just interested in horn speakers in general, there is abundant information out there beyond the small sampling of info referenced here.

Mapman - Please don't quote Ronald Reagan to me. The man was a moron.
I do hope you are bright enough to realize as much.

Johnk,
How would you do the "Add fostex t900a tweeters a few parts adds about $1100 more" integration into the M19s? Would you replace the uppermid drivers with something else (as was suggested on a long thread over at Lansing Heritage a year or two ago)?

You would use a capacitor and pentameter or fixed resistors if you can afford fostex r100t transformer attenuators even better. Some Altecs might need networks updated but most do not.The t900a has a stand you just move it forward or back to get some time alignment vertically. Very easy to do.

OM Horns

These are horns that I think I could live with some day if they sound as good as they look.
