Lyrita Horn Speakers

[soulforged]

Congrats Viren Sir! Looks like I have to hurry up and make the trip to Delhi that I have been putting off for long... :clapping::clapping::clapping:

Congratulations Viren! Beautiful looking speakers.

I have a question which CorElement also referred to. Does applying a finish like varnish or paint on the horns affect the sound in any way?

 

[square_wave]

as they sound so much different from the psb/focal/ascend acoustics which almost sound boxy if compared to these. They might be more accurate in frequency response but the emotional connection is the biggest strength with Viren ji's speakers, it will awaken the music lover in you surely.

Bro, a question from a curious soul.

How can a speaker which is more accurate in frequency response not sound more emotionally appealing?

Common sense tells me that there are no rules for enclosures. It can be anything as long as it works well with the chosen drivers and design philosophy.

All speaker designs have some level of pros and cons. It depends on what solution works for the listener.

I like to think that it is not the frequency response that makes the difference here. It is a difference in the overall approach.

What do you think ?

Square wave,

This phenomenon is there across components from tubes to cartridges to you name it. The most common example in the tube world is the famous telefunken flat plate ecc83s that have a neutral response verus the mullards which are just soulful and emotionally more involving.

Congrats Viren and all the best.

Has anyone heard these ?

These are final products. I heard the prototype and it had terrific mids and good hf. These must be sounding even better than the prototype.

Hi audiodelic/heliumflight

Which one did you guys hear?

Sir, I heard the Lyrita Horn Grande with the 12" drivers, now it has been replaced with the 15" one.

How is the bass response? I am hearing lots of praise for MIDs and LFs. Are they capable of giving you deep bass?

-John.

-John.

They give you good bass extension. If I remember correctly Virenji told me that it rolls off at 50hz but the bigger 15" drivers will be able to go lower.

Mids/Highs give a balanced presentation.

Looks great!

Hi,

Congratulations Viren. :clapping: The speakers look great.

I am betting the sound is too.

Hope to find time by year end or early next year to make the long overdue trip to Delhi to meet with you.

Hi Heliumflight

Thanks for the info.

 

[Jaybe]

Lyrita Audio introduces horn speakers to compliment its range of tube amplifiers. These high sensitivity speakers combine well with any of Lyritas tube amplifiers, to reproduce the rich tone.

Viren,

Congratulations at the new introduction. It will certainly synergies with your tube amps. Look forward to hearing them.

congrats everyone! Now you truly have a superb speaker option from India -- thanks to Virenji.

I had heard the prototypes at Virenji's place and was very impressed. He was still ironing out the crossover at that time and I am sure the speakers are now truly outstanding (they were near perfect even during the testing stage!)

It would be very tough for ANY imported speaker to match up to Virenji's new creation at the price points that he is bringing these in!

In that case, will we see a pair of either of the new creations of Virenji @ your place soon???? Time to move on from the resurrection's???

My good friend, I ask in all seriousness, knowing your fondness of big drivers

 

[iaudio]

Good going, Viren ji. Its great to know that now we have an Indian option to go the Horn speaker route. And knowing Lyrita products, sonic excellence is guaranteed imo.

Heliumflight, both the grande and petite versions seems to do 50 Hz according to specs posted.

Hi,

It would be very tough for ANY imported speaker to match up to Virenji's new creation at the price points that he is bringing these in!

Hope Viren plans to offer these speakers with options of using drivers/woofers from Altec,JBL, B&C, 18 Sound,Radian etc.

Prices will increase but then I am betting these speakers will be comparable to something like the Blumenhofer Gran Gioia at a fraction of the price.

Rajiv

These would look in your room

Well, ok, they'd look good in any room! hyeah:
