Post Subject: "Theater" amp/speakersPosted by Paul S on: 4/25/2007
I think some of the best horns I ever heard were reconstructed "theater" speakers that had their amps wired directly to the voice coils, just as you describe, above.   This was my first notion of the term "dedicated amp", because of this experience.  It may be that the amps in this case were PP, and almost certainly they were 2-stage, although I can't be certain this many years later.  In any case these amp/speakers projected remarkable vitality and immediacy, with very limited resonances for horns of that type, although I have no idea why this would be so, just an observation.

Best regards,
Paul S
