Title: Starting a Corner Horn project
Post by Sunny2 on 10/19/26 at 06:19:36

I always wanted Klipschorns. I thought Klipschorns were the ultimate. They seemed so holographic and fast and realistic. Now that I own a pair, I’m thinking that the staggered sound front and crossover Amp/LCR/Speaker interaction is fuzzing things up.

And so it begins… I’m working on a walnut burl wood veneered version of the Decware single driver corner horn. The non-veneered inner parts are getting sealed and assembled. The veneer shows up in a week or so.

I’m thinking these will sound even better than the Jensen Imperial my dad built when I was a youngster (when my folks were out I used to slip on a record and turn it up to blastisimo!). What a way to start you life-long listening reference!

I admire your ambition, S2. A few years ago I had looked at the DIY pages, and decided that the open baffle speakers were about the limit of my woodworking abilities. I look forward to photos documenting your progress.

Thanks for the reply. I’m in slow-build mode because of all the subtle challenges in the design.build. I’ll be posting pix when I hit the 4 post requirement. This is my first post here, but I now have a SE84UFO2.1 and a ZP3 with a VPI table and Denon DL103. I can’t wait to upgrade the speakers. I’m hoping to hear some this weekend.

Hey Sunny 2!
Very interested in your impressions once you get her done. Been to Steve's twice and never got a chance to auditioning his.

Well I’m thinking it’s a long shot that he would bring them to Decfest but I have my fingers crossed. At least I’ll be able to hear similar sounding ones on his electronics.
