Hornographic

@Innocent_George, yep, the view's why we bought the place. You can decompress pretty well in that room, especially with some hot licks on the Khorns and some cool alcohol in hand. We've had our first "horn party" with the neighbors a few weeks ago and I expect we'll have others this summer. Speaking of reading, that's my pastime. But I have a new problem now because I find it hard to read with music on the Khorns. I keep getting distracted by their amazing fidelity... It's a tough life, id'nit?

Here are @Wolfpack02's horns in their new home. Having so much glass next to the Khorns isn't ideal but they still sound great. Plus we have a nice view while listening. First step when they arrived was to add pipe insulation to the edges of the bass horn (recommended by @codewritinfool). Horns don't fit the room? No problem - hack the room. Luckily, my better half hasn't noticed this. (But she really enjoys the horns so she'd probably be cool with it.) Another of codewritinfool's suggestions was ALK's "Super AA" mod for the Type AA crossovers in these horns. So I ordered parts & modified the crossovers. It's not the world's prettiest layout but it works fine. The change in sound was small but noticeable: mellower midrange and better bass. Maybe it was mostly the new caps, but it was worth the time and the $70 for parts.
