The entire morning I am cleaning house and listening WCRB, warming myself up for 3MP broadcast of Riccardo Muti leads Chicago with Verdi's Requiem. Hey, did I tell you that am listening my new midbass horns?

Well, I do and I do not. The throats of the horns are still plugs with a few inches of foam tampons and I am listening them as they are. I have so much Temptation to remove the plugs and to hear the thing but I will never will be able to put plugs back – there is a LOT of dirt in the hams not and will be even more this week.

Can I say anything about sound of the horns with the plugs? I do not think that anybody, including me care about this sound but I have to tell you that it is VERY funny sound. Not the sound of the horn but the horns localization. Even stain in the mid of the room the horns do not indicate too much where they are and the sound come very defused from the entire room, it is in way how the sound of organ in a church. Sure the foam plug is a hell of low pass filter… still it is very difficult to say anything now as I think now the driver work ONLY into the front chamber and the resonant frequency of the driver is no less then 150Hz.

I can wait what I will remove those damn plugs….
