Battling horn criticism is the very same thing that battling audio superficiality, lack of serious criteria about audio and ignorance about
the phisics and geometry  involved. The really annoying thing is that audioworld was ,in his early developement, more consistent
that it is now. May be  there were scientific concepts working, while now there is just snobysm and "marketingwise"
"scientific arguments" . This way you can never get the knowledge and understand things.

And the key here , the starting point  to  develop some kind of solid Knowledge is....... abscence of nonsense, love for authentic
understanding of things. And my friends i believe that you dont see too much of it nowadays in audio. I must say that the high end audio went too
high to be real and became exibitionism of unknowleadgable science.Very sad.


If someone is truly involved in audio,then  must know , or come to the conclusion that even without hearing one, horns are by default the better "structure"
to get sound in the way sound propagates trough the air (within its own bandwidth). If you are not familiar with basics of geometry and phisics enough
to understand such a basics then nothing can be done.

 I just cant believe that every audio person just ignore the fact that (Theoretically) the best possible device to get sound from ,should be  a horn and a
mechanical  vivrating needle attached to it if we compare it to complexity  of obtaining the very same waves from a direct radiator,
in terms "wave integrity"phisycs (always conceptually speaking).

The thing is not "sounds like a horn"  , but   "It should be sounding like a horn"
