This guy is an artist. Amazing, the sound and rhythm. Who said high end speakers are no good for life performance?

@Paul, this guy might be a good candidate for your studio and octave, really.
His name is:
If you have time watch the video and be amazed.
Great artist. Horn loaded drivers are used virtually exclusively in any live rig. The compression/horn driver configuration is something that brings with it, a unique delivery of dynamics that even large arrays cannot match. But the real true test of any setup, is to reproduce a sound that rivals the live performance. When your configuration has the speaker itself disappear, then you know youâre getting close. I do use compression/horn configuration for my setup, and wouldnât trade them for anything.

Quiz: Who said this about horns: âMy theories on audio and audio reproduction will be proven wrong only when the laws of physics change.â

Paul Klipsch?
I donât know the answer. There is something to be said for any kind of transducer. I was impressed by this demo.
Since this thread is in the Music section, did you notice the artist and music when you were watching the video? Incredible how he generated that span of tone and rhythm and still made it sound like music.
Chevy Chase? 
Interestingly, in recent U.S. audio shows Audio Note UK has enlisted the aid of cellist Vincent Belanger to do something similar. He will play a piece live from one of his recordings, and when heâs done the same piece will be played on the Audio Note system. It too is quite impressive. Not to say one is better than the other (Iâve also heard the Avantgardes many times), but itâs quite curious to see how thereâs more than one way to âpeel an onionâ in the world of audio.

I use a set of monitors designed by the famed JBL engineer Greg Timbers. It is a modified horn design from Altec and uses a compression driver of JBL design.
Vincent plays the Canadian Audio Fest most years. The âis it real or recorded performance is really enjoyableâ. This years show starts this Friday. Iâm attending and I hope that he plays.
