Calling all Horn lovers

Mapman, I've heard Duke's speakers in some pretty small rooms and they have worked great! I've also heard them in some larger rooms with excellent results.

The Audiokinesis Jazz Module based on it's description, size and price would seem worthy of much consideration. I get the feeling that it would outperform many speakers that cost more. An added bonus it's very friendly to lower power amplifiers.
Charles,

Latest AK speakers seemed to get very good buzz as I read it at recent RMAF, including at least one or two mentions I read as among the best in show. Didn't surprise me at all.

I have owned Audiokinesis Jazz Modules for about 5 years now. In fact I am the person Duke mentioned that could reach out and touch the speakers in my setup. At that time I had a very small listening space and at one point I just decided to plop down the speakers in front of my chair and listen to the results. I was pretty surprised at how well it worked and so was Duke. Subsequently I moved the speakers around and never had an issue tuning them to the various room boundaries. Duke's designs are quite flexible as to room size and placement.

I have also spent a fair amount of time listening to the Classic Audio speakers and have always been impressed. Given the prices I doubt I will have a pair in my system anytime soon, as is the case with my favorite Soundlab and Apogee (fully restored) models. I will say though that the Audiokinesis speakers are right up there for a fraction of the price. Duke's design principals are solid and in my opinion he is the King of crossover design.

Larryi, Thank you for that information.
