Post Subject: Those horn guys… a very pleasant discovery.Posted by Romy the Cat on: 4/21/2025
Here is an interview with the owner of Volti Audio. The company has those three-way horns that are shown in the second part of the clip. The whole beginning of the clip, along with the waxing poetry by the interviewer, who was asking stupid questions, are just an unfortunate noise. The speaker is very questionable and recognizing the fact that the designer never made efforts to time-align MF and HF channels, makes it a very strong candidate for me to not even consider listening to them.
 
However. This guy himself, Greg Roberts, the owner, sounds very good. I typically hate how today's manufacturers speak about their own product. It is either BS or lying. This person, Greg Roberts actually sounds like a normal human being, very surprising and very pleasant.  I do not care too much about his product, but I like him. He denies talking about the right things, he very apologetically says about the thing that he believes. I'm typically VERY critical about those types of interviews, but I have zero problems with anything that Greg Roberts said. I might disagree with a few things, but it does not demean either Mr. Roberts nor the ideas that he supports. A very pleasant discovery.
