In the Thread: Why Horn loaded systems?!

Post Subject: Horn loaded until what frequenciesPosted by Jorge on: 7/30/2013

No system ever resembles live music. imho. But you can get pretty close.

Can you describe or share a pic of the horrid horns systems you have listened to?

I also hate most badly designed "horn" systems too.

Usually most "Horn" systems have a 15" woofer crossing over to a little horn loaded by a compression driver at around 1 khz.
The horn turns out to be shouty and the woofer punchy and not really mix in toghether.
If this is your experience with horns, I would agree.

If you have lisitened to a Back loaded horn... I would agree with you too.

Have you heard a system with a Front loaded horn going down to at least 150 hz?
Not made out of plastic?

You would need at least a 4 way system.
