Post Subject: What does it do right?Posted by Paul S on: 3/30/2007
I read the horn-related postings on this site with much interest because although I have not heard horns done right, at the same time I have always longed for a way to harness compression horns' absolute dynamic capabilities without the tonal abberations and without also exciting/amplifying their extreme non-linearities. This has always seemed like a very difficult and convoluted task, especially in light of the ultimate necessity to develop and integrate several horns to make a FR system.
So, given that you use the S2s as the heart of your system, Romy, what caught your interest/attention enough that you developed the S2 driver as opposed to various TADs, JBLs, Klipsch, etc? I have not heard any S2s but I have heard several iterations of the Klipsch horn, and these did not really spark my interest, perhaps because I do not know what to listen for in a compression driver/candidate for further development.
Best regards,
