Holy swiss cheese batman!! That is the most amszing sound system ive ever seen. So there 3 ways? 3 drivers per side? The the sousaphone looking horn. Is that the a port so to speak for the woofer ? Or is that a srperate active horn?? In any case . handmade tube amps... Awesome. You say the sax sounded the cat was playing in the room.. Did all the horns sound as realistic? Trumpet , trombone?? Most likely im guessing. Thanx for sharing that.

think maybe 4 way...but most horns I got to hear sounded semi real.
The price is mostly because of the huge horn and what he had to do to make them I think. the 2 big Horns are a handmade work of ART!2 ch- Polk CRS+ * Vincent SA-31MK Preamp * Vincent Sp-331 Amp * Marantz SA8005 SACD * Project Xperience Classic TT * Sumiko Blue Point #2 MC cartridge
