Having heard the Manger, i can't get very excited about this horn. Very elegant executing thou, althou the similar topology Yamamura, i'd guess, might work better. And the less elegant, but over the top Klien horn.

Good catch on the Yamamura, Dave!

Nice looking BLH, HM!

Don't think I've ever hear the Manger, have only read about them.
Seems that HM likes them, Dave doesn't. Any thoughts on why or what for?
 
I heard a pair a year or so back. Quite a pleasent sound, rather 'hifi'; they seemed to give the impression of being detailed, but when you started listening closely it all seemed a bit superficial to me, and dynamics, as Dave said, weren't anything to write home about. Not to my taste, although I can understand why some people like them. YMMV as ever.

very interesting looking phase plug on The Aporia.

Turbo, baby! (thanks to d 2 g)

From the website:

"The flat cone of the Manger driver can yield limited dispersion, so we designed a removable diffusor that enhances performance in most listening room environments. Similar techniques were used in classic JBL and Siemens professional gear."

Or air conditioning vents.... 😛
