Why not horns?

I've owned a lot of speakers over the years but I have never experienced anything like the midrange reproduction from my horns. With a frequency response of 300 Hz. up to 14 Khz. from a single distortionless driver, it seems like a no-brainer that everyone would want this performance. Why don't you use horns?

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.

They do. In fact, many people would say they sound a lot better than they look. They were designed for OMA by Bill Woods.
