To horn or not to horn

I have never owned a horn speaker. I’m curious if there are any who are first time horn speaker owners after having owned other types of speakers for many years, and are you glad you switched?

Richard Gray just today, lent me his old 1960's Magnoxov horn tweeters,
WOWWWW
SOLD
Sold off my Millennium tweeters lasty week, BRAND NEW for $300 pair./ships free.sold in 1 hour on ebay
I'll never ever consider any done wteeter ever again  in my entire life.
Been there DONE that.
Horns RULE!
Now which horns?
Only musical ones should be considered.
I listen close field, small room, so the massive JBL's will not work for me. 
 The Magnovox 1963 hasa tiny alnico magnet, I mean thats all I need. 
All I need now is a midrange horn. 
I have bass with dual W18E001's, 
Richard just added a  2.2uf Mundorf SESGO cap to the 10uf Supreme Silver Gold OIl (Not EVO Supreme, only Supreme ), and man, did that added 2.2 EXPOLDE the bass.
These Mundorf SESGO caps in bass xovers are just incredible.
The added 2.2 brings the W18's down from 1900 hz to 1600 hz. 
Perfect. 
If I can finda  quality midrange horn, this set up
Dual W18E001 + Mid Horn + Tweet horn , might very well give the Voxativ AC1A FR driver a 
~~Run for its money~~~
I'm serious.
But i know fora  fact the Vox8 will win out, This W18/Horn combo will hold me over til I get some cash for the Vox AC1A
I havea  Davidlouis 4 inch FR arriving any day. 
It will be the Horns vs the davidLouis 4 inch FR for mids highs...
I will keep everyone posted on this shootout.
A good musical horn tweet will blow away any done tweet in the world, Including SEas $9k diamond dome tweeter

Klipsch won’t do it, and I speak from experience.

Klipsch doesn't impress there ears as well

The FR is 93db
Made a world of difference.
1 FR 6.5 vs Seas Dual 6.5's + the world fmore Millennium tweet, Yet the FR 6/5 did more than hold its own, it far surpassed the Thors.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't listen to my previous post.
I was completely wrong. The Diatone chinese 6.5 FR was a  disaster.
Completely worthless. Oh sure it does do things the Seas Millennium can ' not accomplish. 
But the Diatone off Ebay really stinks. 

Sloppy bass, highly distorted midfs, completely rolled off highs.
This Magnovox horn from 1963 , blows away any dome tweet, Any/all, every last one.
Horns RULE!

mozartfan,

Do you read what your write? If so, does this make sense to you? If you have anything to contribute please present your information in such a way as to not render it meaningless as it floats off your keyboard. Reading your posts makes me very uncomfortable as does the thought of you doing day to day (normal) things like driving. 

audition_audio,
That's nothing new with him. Don't let it bother you.
