    HF horns - Wood replicas.

    Man these look good. I know the price is rather dear but something like them just leaves me in awe.

    Nothing like a great big pair of speakers to make your day.

    They are quite expensive.But when you consider how much work goes into them ??

    But he sure sells a lot of "All cork platter upgrades for turntables" And if you check out his eBay feedback almost all posts say "Superb Craftsmanship" I'm sure you would receive one Smokin, Beautiful, set of Horns :2thumbsup:

    Now to order my cork platter Thanks Cal for the link.

    I have a pair of his 805's on order. They should be ready in August. I plan to pair them up with a new pair of GPA 399's. I'll let you know my impression.

    Very cool, please let us know.

    I was talking with someone recently (Dallas?) who said that he had tried to go over and have a listen, but the fellow was never home, or some such.

    Glad to know someone here is actually getting a pair.

    Re: HF horns - Wood replicas.

    Please don't beat me up to bad, but I don't have the cabinets to put them on!

    I have 2 pair of 416's all 16 ohm including the 416's and 399's. I was thinking of building a pair of cabinets with the same dimensions as my 846 Valencias but a little taller. To 36 inches. This gives me a cabinet of a little over 8 cu. ft. Crossover at 800HZ. Crossover not determined yet either...

    Suggestions and comments welcome.

    Really looking forward to your impressions. I know the old metal originals sure have their following but the pictures of those are just stunning. If they sound good, I might have to sell my mine and get a pair of those.
