Also, Jessie, there is another very important point. A construction of your systems should not be a pure DIY efforts or it will be just another stupid DIY project. Your should have none-DIY objectives and use those horns to resolve those none-audio objectives. You need to clearly visualize the result, to breed the result within yourself. Try to listen and to understand Sound that your horn does without even connecting the horn… The moronic DIY people always miss it and end up with garbage result but the problem is that they do not know where they are doing.  Good result come to people who are ready to recognize good results and you have to train and evolve own perception and understudying of Sound in order to be able to acknowledge and discriminate the result when and if you get it from this big new horn.  Without an evolvement of own awareness any DIY project is juts a pile of stupid activity resulting with typical nothingness… Try to develop some “leading” interests in  music and build this big horn to fulfill this “leading interest”…

Yeah, Very true but also difficult and long, painful process. Finally I think I know what I want. The problem is that I don't have time resources and knowlege to get there. With my limited comprehensive skills I tried to navigate trough this site for a several months now . Everything became much simpler after purchase of seasonal subscription (finally) to Symphony Hall .Funny how many people say it but I really wonder how many people who "do" audio listen to life music.If they do, how they say they do I must have an alien ears. (I heard that some audiopholes don't like to go to classical performancess because their gear just SOUNDS BETTER) I know that it is truism but there is no vocabulary to transfer the experience and all this mine , Romy's and others "Eskimo poetry"as elaborate as it can be just scratches the surface of personal experience . I still don't understand how playback system at home can trough different perceived (?) qualities stimulate similar to life music emotions.Either I missed the post or did not comprehend it could you elaborate more on this Roman?? Maybe thats the key to success. Also still there is a problem with recognizing "the problem" And finally it became painfully evident that in most DIY installations people just put in the play whatever crap they have in hand and after that try to justify (or defend) their choices or build philosophy around it and I tried that too (defend & justify) and the best I could come with was ,well it was cheap or I already had the junk in my hand ,and yes I was wrong in some of my stupid posts.I'm really sorry.
