General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Controlled directivity

Hi Duke. Good suggestions as always.

Would a big, horn-loaded point source like a Tannoy fit your suggestion of a speaker that provides "controlled directivity?"

They would certainly have the sensitivity and sound power to drive a large room.

I'm a little uncertain about dipoles though as they tend to be insensitive and lack bass and the ability to create big orchestral style dynamics and sound power.
