Illuminati (33rd Degree)

Steve's speakers are similar to four π speakers, but there's a pretty significant difference. His uses a tractrix round horn and all mine use axisymmetrical flares. That's a pretty big deal, really, because the null angles are set outside the pattern which is not possible with a round horn. Beyond that, I think you heard Steve's speakers when they had a torn voice coil cap, and that can cause all sorts of mayhem, buzzes and other nasties, particularly in the midrange and upper frequencies. So you might want to listen again when his speaker is repaired. As for the four π's, I'll have you over sometime soon when I get everything setup in the new house. That way you can get a good chance to hear some four π speakers where you can relax and really listen to them.
