Hey guys,
Just finished up a pair of Lotus double mouth horns loaded with MA CHR-70 drivers. Initial impressions are very good. They still need many hours of break in, so I’m holding judgement for now.
Mainly posting this because I know I had trouble finding good phots of these towers complete (with size references) when I was first considering this build. They are my second build. My main stereo pair(s) are B&W N805s and Zaph ZRT Revelators (first build).
And it’s downright spooky how a pair of ~$40 drivers in large well designed horns can run with “higher end” multiway speakers.
Anyway, just some click bait for you guys I guess. Carry on.

Tanner,
Nice build, congratulations! I like the contrast between the veneers you've used for the baffle and overall cabinet.
These are first generation CHR-70s you have got there?

Hey Tanner,
Now that you've made those lovely cabs, you should make a matching stand for you components.

Thanks again guys! And yes the lighting is a bit wierd and my iPad camera isn’t the best. And that’s next on the build list, VinylKid! A matching audio rack with a built in sub.
You might want to rethink building a sub into same cabinet as any of the electronics, and depending on the room co-locating with the mains is not always the best acoustic solution.
