What horn to choose? |
|
|
After listening to my Dynaudio set for about 15 years I think it is
time for something new. I have been checking the net and like the idea
of a horn and a low powered single ended tube amplifier. The choises I
came to were:
Lowther fidelio rear end horn or a Fostex Jericho front end horn. I
even have been thinking of putting a Lowther EX driver in the Jericho
cabinet. What would be the best option or has anybody experience with
a Lowther in a Jericho horn?

If you really want rounded off lows and highs, with substantial distortion
(but euphonic 2nd order distortion) by all means jump into that (a bit odd)
world.
Advise to you - keep your old stereo, though, since many do not find it
satisfying in the long run. |

On the other hand, if enjoyin' music is the thing he's after (and everyone
should be), he won't change a thing for the rest of his life after he gets
the stuff he mentioned.

Not everyone goes for SETs and horns - but those that do, I agree, never
look back. Some aren't satisfied with them, though. |
