Well, Martin does this as a labour of love, it's not his day job. They are fibreglass, and once he has constructed the mould, the manufacture is fairly straightforward, unlike say JLH's devices.

So you are not paying for audiophile BS... unlike the guys who repackage madisound's ribbon tweeters as supertweeters and quadruple the cost, for example.
 
It's up to the user if they want to apply extra damping material; actually, with a horn of this size, not having to ship the damping probably saves a fortune on the carriage.

The horns will cost me a fair bit more as I had to commission the mould but still a very good deal I think.
Turns out that the standard postal services won't ship them so no point in cutting the horns any more - one piece it will be.

Martin will have a website soon - I'm think it will be www.azurahorn.com (currently parked).
