I really, really don't like Fostex drivers (they're not for everyone). And am not so sure about horns, having heard some expensive ones ($30K) which I unfortuantely can't remember the name of that also didn't trip my trigger. But I have been enjoying 2 watts into 92 db speakers so I think I do like the SET experience. What should I be looking at in the $1,500 range? Are there non-fostex / non-horn options here? Bottlehead Straight 8 comes to mind, though it is discontinued, so there should be some speakers that fit the bill still out there. Any directions to look. I would like to pair them with a 2a3 amp, so 96db and up seems about right with a good impedance curve. Thanks!
