And yet you get people judging very expensive and technically accomplished kit on how well it 'Conveys the emotion'. How do we square that circle?

Hehe, this thread took me back to my Tannoy adventures.
Had a pair of 8" Dorsets with passive radiators briefly,
then Berkleys with the later HPD driver.
Built GRF cabs in thicker birch plywood for them.. similar size to Ardens.
Then front loaded horns took over and things got a bit out of hand..

Think I'll pass on the Arden style cabs and go straight to the horns
Would they fit in my car, cos that's where I'd be living

Yes, if your car is big enough..Think I'll pass on the Arden style cabs and go straight to the horns

Think massive Winnebago.
Not Arden style, GRF's named after their creator Guy R Fountainback loaded horn.
