i build (& built) my own speakers - i just wish i could build my own headphones. my amp building days are over, though i do 'build' computers.
when i buy a house i'll be building speakers using (4) 15" woofers
and yes, i preferr horn midranges and horn tweeters. everything else sounds like there's a pillow over the mids and highs. i'm past my magnaplars, sold my klipsch horn corner speakers, past tube amps, building pre-amps, etc. and find myself being drawn into cans - damn!
but i'm not going back into macintosh, dennon, marantz, carver, etc. it's too much a waste of money. i'd rather just buy camping equipment and camp at Jennifer lake, Wyoming
focal midranges rule! (for those who know what midranges these are). (4) 15" woofers in a mixed acoustic suspension / ported / labrynth enclosure with (2) 8" focal lower mid bass, a 24" x 8 " midrange, and (2) 5" bullet tweeters. heaven. custom crossover, natch. blows away $20k home theatre systems.
