Long time since I lived in the world of horns, but I never lost a distaste for audible contributions from the horns, themselves. The soundtrack that is played to prove the installation is well suited to system strengths, and - as usual - it says something about the builders' mindset. Like I told about my visit to the Cogent guys, years and years ago, despite they did not advertise, their house was crawling with people wanting to be part of it the whole time I was there, literally showing up every few minutes. I am glad that I was actually invited, or I likely would not have gotten to speak with either of them. I think Romy gave a good account of their operations despite never having seen or heard their speakers in person. It's all there, if you know what you are looking at.

Here is an interview with the owner of Volti Audio. The company
has those three-way horns that are shown in the second part of the clip. The
whole beginning of the clip, along with the waxing poetry by the interviewer, who
was asking stupid questions, are just an unfortunate noise. The speaker is very
questionable and recognizing the fact that the designer never made efforts to time-align
MF and HF channels, makes it a very strong candidate for me to not even consider
listening to them.
However. This guy himself, Greg Roberts, the owner, sounds
very good. I typically hate how today's manufacturers speak about their own product.
It is either BS or lying. This person, Greg Roberts actually sounds like a normal
human being, very surprising and very pleasant.
I do not care too much about his product, but I like him. He denies
talking about the right things, he very apologetically says about the thing that
he believes. I'm typically VERY critical about those types of interviews, but I
have zero problems with anything that Greg Roberts said. I might disagree with
a few things, but it does not demean either Mr. Roberts nor the ideas that he supports.
A very pleasant discovery.
