Horn based loudspeakers why the controversy?

Anyone who things horns sound “colored” or lack imaging, or intimacy hasn’t heard a good horn system, period. 
First of all, most horn systems are not time aligned. This is bad for all of the above issues.
My system is fully time aligned, and features the world’s best midrange, the RCA1443 field coil driver. 
It scales beautifully: Norah Jones is in front of me singing one minute, then the next a massive orchestra is playing. (not sure how to post a photo?)

No ‘cone’ woofer speaker will ever match the speed, realism, and scale that a well designed horn system can muster. The problem is that these are rare. Wheel Fi made great systems, but I don’t think they’re around anymore. Try them. 
Oswalds Mill is a joke. Their horns sound good, but the owner is a complete idiot. But that’s another story!

@kosst,

I have a pair of Impulse H1 horns that would probably change your thinking regarding horn speakers.

@gawdbless 
I'm very open to hearing whatever I can. I think I extended the offer to go listen to anybody's system within a few hours of me. So far no PM's to that effect. I'm in Toledo and I drive to northern Michigan a couple times a month. 

Contact Jeffrey Jackson if you want to hear world class horns. But his systems typically cost well over $100k. 

My vintage Speaker Lab 7's are a 4 driver speaker. Woofer, upper-bass woofer, wide mid-horn, horn tweeter. Horns are plastic and well-damped! Bought them cheap ($100) from Habitat - needed some large floorstanders for interim use. Boy, was I surprised at the high quality of SQ that the 7's produce! No harshness or horn "bite" - just smooth, enjoyable sound! Used with Bryston .5 pre/3B amp. Dynamic range is A+.
