funny...I have a few speakers ALL Horn Design, but with ALL,
the speakers, and very sensitive, even without ANY Music,
with your ear near the speakers, DEAD QUIET!
Paul Klipsch must have known a thing or two; How many
speakers do YOU know, that have been around over 60 YEARS!
Properly set-up, the Horn speaker, is capable of uncanny
realism.
Time will tell, how long these new speakers last.
They won't be making them in 60 years I know that.
We ALL hear different, but we ALL like "accurate sound"
The Horn Design, commands that certain criteria is met,
for Best results, failure to address each individual
piece in the puzzle, and you will "run for the hills!"
Well worth the effort, to gain Superior sound IMHO.
Nothing does voices, horns, and so much more, like horns,
do.
The sound is "Natural", not boomy, or shrill sounding.
Really funny, when folks see the speakers I have, they laugh, and say "you can't be serious?"
Music starts, "jaws drop to the floor!" SPEECHLESS!
They start walking around the room, as if in disbelief,
wondering how the sound is so "CLEAN!"
They go home, listen to the same CD's, and come back over,
and listen again, this time, visible upset, they usually
say something like, "never heard horns sound so real!"
A fellow listener, recently was "sick" when he compared
his 2 speakers(very nice$$$$$), to my set-up. "No comparison!"
Although using multiple speakers,when the Music starts they "disappear"!
Where his 2 speakers, left NO doubt, EXACTLY where the
Music was coming from.
Plus, they could NOT provide the Complete "Bass Lock"
on the entire room.
Imaging, Sound-stage, Dynamics, "Surround" Sound 2 channel,
front and back.
Unless You have a large Genesis or Infinity I.R.S., VR-11,Burmester, or
one of those seven foot tall speakers, no small 2 speakers,
will EVER fill a room evenly, as effortlessly, and
seem-less, with pure accurate Music reproduction.IMHO.
Altec, and JBL also have had great success, with Horn
designs, like the VOT, series.
They exist, because they make MUSIC! Something many of
the much more expensive speakers FAIL to do.
Recording Studios know.
Oh, if I hooked up my Klipsch to a 100wpc. Kenwood receiver,
THAT would be what Horn haters, refer to. "Shrill-City!"
They are like a microphone, every single sound is reproduced.
But, in my set-up, I hear details in songs, I NEVER heard!
I can hear Miles giving Rudy Van Gelder instructions
on several of His CD's, CLEARLY!
You HEAR every single sound that is on the CD, cash registers, inhale of horn players, decay in bass lines.
Barely audible on most speakers, VERY clearly audible,
on mine.
The inflection when a bass player strums a note, and the
sound of his finger releasing the strings. Amazing!
No not for everyone, but then, WHAT IS?
I Love Music!
