Post Subject: A dirth of good examplesPosted by Paul S on: 3/15/2007
Somehow the front runners in the horn field seem to have entered a time warp. At least we tried mightily to overcome/mitigate "horn sound", back in the day.
With all the promise horns offer in terms of dynamics, all I wanted was a decent demonstration that horns could get it done without the tromboning, "horn sound", phase anomilies and combing.
It has long seemed to me that the 2 main horn groups were antiquarians and those who either forgave or ignored horns' shortcomings because of their strengths., just like the "Lowther Guys", the "Planar Guys", the "SET Guys", etc, etc.
To brook examples like these it must be that these very committed folks are either after a very particular thing these speakers do well, or they are just after these speakers.
Best regards,
