BTW, how are the EVs at low volume playback compared to the Harbs?

I couldn't agree more. I notice they are very keen on 4 and 5 way designs. Hard to imagine how some of those could be integrated into Japanese style listening spaces (read small).murray johnson said:Getting the funds together to buy the component parts of such a system is only half of the battle. Acquiring the know-how to integrate them is arguably more difficult.
Markus Sauer said:Joel, do you still have the Harbs? Switch back to them in 2 weeks time or so, I'd be genuinely interested in your comments.
Markus Sauer said:I know people who have been down this route, 4-way horn systems of various manufacture. With one exception, they have gone back to using 2-way systems as they found it impossible to master the integration of the drivers.
The one exception is someone who built a huge room and integrated the bass horn ino the room. I haven't heard that system, unfortunately.
That said, I tought Chris's system with the Valencias, the JBL horns and the Revel subs below was excellent. The integration between the Valencias and the subs was surprisingly seamless, probably helped by high-pass-filtering the Valencias.
