JBL Synthesis THX Ultra2 Certified SK2-3300 LCR First Look
The THX Ultra2 certified JBL Synthesis SK2-3300 LCR has technology based on the flagship Project Everest. Sporting dual 10" woofers plus two ports, a heavily braced enclosure with a curved front baffle, and dual binding posts plus horn-loaded midrange and ultra high-frequency drivers with extension all the way up to 50kHz. The 1" ultra-high-frequency beryllium diaphragm driver is paired with a 60x30 degree JBL Bi-Radial horn. The horn shape is designed to increase off axis response as horn-loaded drivers are known for their directionality. The 3" beryllium diaphragm midrange/high-frequency compression driver is mated with a 100x60 degree horn. The 10" woofers are treated with JBL's Aquaplas material, has dual 3-inch heavy-duty edge-wound voice coils, neodymium motor structures, and cast-aluminum frames. In our book, if there was ever a speaker designed to be heard and not seen, the JBL Synthesis SK-3300 LCR is it.

Not the prettiest speaker on the block but I bet it would sound great behind an acoustic curtain.

Attached to a charging bull springs to mind.

Not all horns sound alike as they are not built the same with the same directivity in either the verticle or horizontal planes.

Sounds like you haven't heard a commercial theater that is properly set up and EQ'd.
Horns used in theaters can sound jaw dropping. Not just in dynamics and scale either. They can be every bit as subtle, natural and nuanced as a good home rig.

Horns are an absolute must in large listening spaces like movie theaters or concert venues.
I have had a chance to listen to JBL Synthesis in a home environment and the system was excellent and I am by no means a "horn" person unless you add a "y" to it
