What does one purchase after owning horns?

"Seriously, I've GOT to hear some horns, just to revisit...Duke, if you ever want to have a Beta Test Site...send me a pair...I'll write a Harry Pearson quality, prosaic piece and be honest to a fault."

Thanks for your offer, Larry. Shipping costs make it impractical... I'd probably be looking at ballpark 700 bucks round trip.

Tmsorosk,
Which 'panel' speakers have you owned?

Good listening,
Larry

Weseixas, here is my comment:

Regular dome tweeters don't handle very much power (2 watts is common).

I am not saying that 'a dome tweeter cant[sic] handle more'. To misquote me here and then knock down the resulting argument is a logical fallacy called a Strawman. see http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/straw-man.html

The idea of a logical fallacy is that it appears logical but is in fact false. There are of course many tweeters than handle more than 2 watts, but 2 watts is indeed quite common. There are horn tweeters than can handle 25 watts; given that they are about 10db more efficient than many dome tweeters, said dome tweeter would have to handle 250 watts do produce the same output. Do you know of any that do that? I don't; but if they are out there they are pretty unusual.

Duke,
I understand, shipping's a bear these days.
I would LOVE to hear your creations some time. Part of knowing how good they must be, stems from your afinity for Sound Labs. If you love/sell them, you must have a good handle on what is musically accurate.

Good listening,
Larry

Larry, with your given audible strengths, you may never be truly happy. Tho, they will have you striving for the highest level. Possibly, your goal is unobtainable... neverless you will reach a damn high bar with that fortitude! :)
