“No matter if it is Shostakovich, Brahms or Liszt – every note playing is audible in its fullness by Master Horn and Douce.”

ProductIf you take a look at our products you will notice their design fi rst: it is simple and functional,

critical and revisory towards generaly accepted typologies. It becomes quite clear that it follows basic idea of the Bauhaus – we believe that esthetic value of an object derives from the perfect fusion of form and function. No decoration and ornaments, only simplicity in its purest way. Our mission is to translate this rationality of the form into the sphere of the sound: to transmit the music in the purest possible way and most truthful as possible to the original performance. A horn speaker, due to its caracteristics, is closest to that ideal so aft er 20 years of research we accomplished our goal. Reproduction of the sound of each instrument maintained its natural colour and tone. Furthermore, you feel the music as if the performers are in the same room with you, in front of you at the same distance as they where from the microfone during the recording session. Musical presentation is profound, not fl at nor veiled, so you can feel the position of each performer in the room. Sound performance is pure, unadulterated, more organic and natural.

Presentation of sound volume is profusely, rich, resolutely in its volume as well as in accurate orientation up and down, front and back, left and right due to the absolute fase exactness, but primarly due to the seat-ing of the driver inside the sphere as a geometric body which makes refl ections, as usual appearance of diff erent constructions including those on plane front surfaces, dissapear. In upper harmonics a high-toned area is completely incorporated in entire sound volume which resultes in absence of high tones (i.e. cymbals, vibraphone, cimba-lom) in front of the driver. Cymbals are interpreted on the position of percussion, where tambour or bass drum stands with outstanding presentation of colour and detail. Higher frequences in sound image remain remarkably connected with the whole of the instrument in precisely positioned spot of the recording

Th e spherical Baffl e

• Horn type loudspeakers with spherical Baffl e

— Th e Baffl e serves a specifi c purpose. Most loudspeaker model-ing is performed based on the assumption of radiation into half space. A speaker radiating into half space plays 6 dB louder than the same speaker radiating into full space. Th is is the crux of the diff raction loss. A full range speaker fi nds itself radiating into half space at the upper frequencies but radiat-ing into full space at lower frequencies. As a result, there is a gradual shift of -6dB from the highs to the lows. Th is is what is called the “6 dB baffl e step” or the enclosure’s “diff raction loss”. A spherical enclosure exhibits this transition clearly with a very smooth diff raction loss curve.
