Lowther drivers, front horn or back loaded horn?


Hi

Normally Lowther advice to use their drivers in back loaded horns like the medallion but Oris and Azura front horns have also made themselves a respected name in lowther based designs. So, I would like to know what are the differences in soundstage, imaging, inmediacy, low level information reproduction, room interaction,,etc between these 2 options.

A lot of people talk about the magic of the lowthers to make music present in the room, as grab and touch and to recreate the ambience of the venues, so,
Which one of these aproachs if properly used will enhance the lowther experience?

Thanks for the answers.
I was planning to put a Lowther PM2A in a 160 Azura Horn without crossover. For the bass, I was thinking on making to use a JBL 2226, in a bass reflex bos or a bass horn.
Any advice?

Thanks

As long as we are just thinking about it, do look into compression drivers, they do everything Lowthers do but better, after a lot of listening to Lowther I developed an aversion against whizzer highs, so I went on to compression drivers.
Azura can make a smaller throat horn for compression drivers, maybe get a pair of Altec, GFA, Beyma or TAD drivers. Then a JBL bass reflex box will do just fine up to say 500 hz, (pushing it, try a 12" woofer here).
Not heard the Lowthers so cannot comment. I love my Oris 150 with Fostex F200a mid/ bd-design bass cab and T900-aex Tweeter. Wow what an engrossing sound. I have to say the Oris 150/F200a is a great combination. And is (for me anyway) up there with the big boys (and maybe beyond many).IMHO.Can't wait for the Denver show to compare speakers.
Hi Jsadurni,

Thanks for the advice.
So, do you think that the compression driver does the same kind of inmediacy, low level information, reproduction like the lowther?
Which one is better in tone reproduction?
Which one has more "presence"? presence like feeling that the musicians are there...

I was thinking that can be an Azura 340 with throat for compression driver and for the low part of the spectrum, a bass horn or a bass reflex.
Which compression driver will you recommend me for the 340 horn?
My new room is 13 feet wide x 17 feet large, Im planning to put the horns on the 13 feet wall. I will seat at 12-14 feet from the horns, do you think is enough space for the waves to integrate and produce image?

Thanks

Gawdbless I built those horns, you have a t90aex a rare limited edition fostex tweeter and wonderful f200a the gent you purchased from put much $ into that system you got a great deal.
