Starting a Corner Horn project
Today
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.

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.
