Sep 20 2007Horn Speakers Are Huge, Fugly
If you live in a castle and have all the room in the world for two monster mid to high-range speakers, then the Ferguson Horn Speakers may be for you.
The Ferguson Hill Loudspeakers are full range units from 150Hz - 20KHz, with no crossover, however, a sub bass unit is required below 150Hz. They reproduce music with a high level of clarity, detail and dynamics, are highly efficient, and will go loud with just a few watts (5 watts).This allows their use with relatively low powered amplifiers further increasing the level of clarity obtainable, from such relatively 'simple' amplifier circuits.
Yeah, so yeah. Curious about the cost? Try $20,000 a pop. I probably won't even make $20,000 in my lifetime. And if I do I'm not spending it on a fugly speaker. No sir, I'm gonna blow it all on booze and hookers, like any red blooded American would. I'm very patriotic you know.

You gotta admit nothing says "I'm rich" more than those speakers and a 101" TV in your front room. Well maybe 6 or more resident playboy bunnies.

I would get these but with my friends, this would be turned into a beer bong in no time, and of course I would approve.

i build speakers for DJing. these things are outrageous. for 20,000 dollars i could 8 horns to take me from like 240 to 35 hz or so, and a good 4 midtops to handle the rest, then amp and crossover the whole thing, and still have enough money for technics, enough records to go all night, and a really good mixer. If i really wanted to be a little prick i could probably even design one of these things on super no brainer smart people program for dummies freeware horn design sims, then carve the shape out of something and plastic form it like back in the days of star wars nerds making storm trooper outfits, then use a BETTER driver for my high end... altho anything that goes from like 20k hz down to 150 hz probably blows out around 400hz starting @ very low db levels because that shit isn't right. more so- heavy duty wood cabinets are SERIOUSLY heavy duty on the labor end. These are not. more insult to injury. I should design over priced aesthetically pleasing shit for rich assholes who spent 99% of brain power learning how to make money, and 1% how to buy a hot vindictive bitch's love. Tho with all my time spent on sites like this i myself would then simply be rich only WITHOUT a vindictive bitch's love. worth it.
