Horns: Why don't they image well?

Need big enough room, and enough space from the horns for the waves to disperse proper. Smith horns suck in small rooms.

@gawdbless
based on my research i’d want a room of at least 150m3 also personally i’d rather go for a pair of jubilees over kilpshorns

@audiokenesis
what horns will be in room 3002?

Lol, the imaging on my Jbl are bonkers off the wall insane.

After living with my jbl 4367 for a month, I just don’t see how imaging could be improved that much more. Have any if you guys heard the new wave guide on the m2/4367?

Okay. But have you heard them?

@georgehifi I asked have you heard m2/4367. Not all horns are created equal. The JBL patented waveguide used in the M2 and the 4367 is a different sort of beast from the other horns you've heard. Correct me if I'm wrong, but yeah it seems like youre saying you have not heard the m2/4367 and are lumping those horns with Klipsh.

Also like you mr. d, i did not get my horns because I wanted that pinpoint imaging, that just turned out to be a big bonus for me. I got them for their impressive off the charts dynamic capabilities, high sensitivity and ease of use to mate with tube amps, or low watt class a, and sense of scale and 'thereness' that a good horn system does better than a good standard 3 way. that is just my experience, at least.

Um I was just trying to point out that the m2/4367 use a different horn waveguide and as such would sound a lot different than la scalas or smith horns. I have always enjoyed and respected georoge's posts, and I have no doubt that audio psychic convey a better imaging stage compared to older horn designs.
