If you choose carefully, there is no fatigue with horn listening, nor is there any "honk".I use horns and have also owned Quads that were also very nice. Both offer exceptional imaging and general sound quality, although the Quads lacked a bit in terms of bass compared with my horns. I had Avantgarde Unos and Quad 2905s (2912 modded) at the same time and preferred the AGs by a whisker sound wise, but barn doors are not what I want in my home as they spoil the views unacceptably.
