Horn Speaker Recommendations

Zingali or Cornscala

Well said Mr Decibel!  You put some of my thoughts into words better than I could have done.

You just can’t characterize horn systems as all sounding this way or that, positive or negative.  They are all different.  Just like you can’t say all sealed box woofers have a particular sound, or all electrostats, or all ribbon drivers.

For my money, the very best horn systems do everything right including soundstaging and imaging.  

The Avantdarde Duo Mezzo is a reach, but what superlative sound at AXPNOA! If I were after a premier horn, that is one I would certainly have on my short list. 

Oh, my...a large room?

Here is wild, crazy suggestion that many will not like, but exploring options IN YOUR ROOM is the best path to long-term music enjoyment:

Place the horn speakers you like best in the room with your gear and listen to your fav songs.

Remove them and replace them will Magneplanars in the same price range.

Choose.

Good luck!

Cheers,

Richard
