The only reason I asked is earlier in the thread you mentioned using some super tweeters which I would have thought wouldn't have been necessary with these horns.

I'd like to send you one of these to try out (assuming you'd like too) but won't be able to do it until after Christmas now.
let me know what you think!

pm'd.  looks like a great product.  your own design?  I agree, a boost in the HF on the mixer is all thats required to get the horn sounding airy:)  Being able to do this (and more) externally, keeping the mixer eq flat would be welcomed!
REFLEX ALL THE WAY.... (however, im playing with horns again...) That ok Mister Valiant? :)

For Bristol boffins, the Main Screen Eco sound system will be providing sound for the dj at the Bristol Urban Sport opening celebration tomorrow (1st June 2012).  On the harbour side (outside M Shed, just past the 3 big cranes tomorrow evening from 6pm til 10pm)..

We will be cheating a bit - running mixer and decks off the mains power.  but the rest will be 12 volt, currently charging from solar power.  It'll give some of you an idea what can be done with a few hundred watts of 12volt power:)  And weather permitting it should be a nice little start to the bank holiday weekend with 'urban sport' themed music from Richie Royale, an outdoor bar, and bbq.
