Post Subject: Nothing is easy with multi-horn setupPosted by MINGSU on: 6/23/2011

This is a complex topic to setup a multi-horn system. What do you expect that something like this will come in a step-by-step instruction? It is years of effort to get it right. The discussion that we have here is wrong horn pair up with driver and wrong crossover point. The result is there - not sounding good. But I don't know why the conclusion is the GOTO driver is to blame for the sound that I don't really understand. One thing that I am sure is not the driver itself. It is the combination of driver + horn + setup that result in such issue. My main point of my posting is to remind reader that do not judge the driver just because it doesnot use in the correct recommended setup. I think this apply to anything that anyone wants to judge - car, plane, food or speaker driver.... Maybe, the horn is not a good match.... Maybe, the room is not treated correctly....Maybe....Maybe.... And finally, maybe the driver is no good..... but to jump in and delcare the drive is the only issue... I don't think that is the correct way to improve the system.

So, again my car example - if you put the right grade of gas into the tank and still not happy with its performance ... it might be the car... it might be the wrong tire... or it might be the driver..... I will think the 1st guess should be the driver, not the car..... Maybe I should try other example but I think car is a more common object that most people can relate to.

Also, judge it when you have real experience with it... not just read and talk about it...

Sorry that I have to jump in with all these posting because I have an interest to not seeing the GOTO being trashed by someone that has never used them before....
