This is the midrange horn in a coming Vera Audio complete horn system and a rare opportunity to buy this separately.
Price is 32 000 NOK EX VAT for a pair including a pair of 3D printed adapters for the Radian 951 driver. With today's currency that's $3004 or 2845 euro. A low cost for such a world class horn. Shipping cost will depend on the address. It will be shipped from Norway in a triple cardbox.

Dimensions of the horn: 110 cm (43.3") width x 80.5 cm (31.69") height and about 55 cm (21.65") depth including the adapter. Weight of horn alone is 14.5 kg (31.96 pounds).

Polar measurements are shown in this thread: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...audio-midrange-horn-polar-measurements.42732/
The directivity is in the area of 80-90° horizontally and 50-60° vertically. The reason the beam width in the graphs are wider is because it hasn't been measured at a far enough distance.

The on-axis response is a flat as the EQ one provides. Considering the constant directivity of the horn, EQ applied on-axis will also work off-axis, which is not the case with most speakers or horns.
This horn doesn't need any tweeter and covers the range from around 600 Hz to 20 kHz with the Radian 951 driver with a 4th order crossover. Driver is not included but can be offered too.

This pair has been veneered with American walnut on the inside, black glossy black in the center and the rear is in black matte paint. The finish is overall good, but not tip top like very expensive speakers. There's a vertical pole in the rear, so the horn will stand on a flat surface.

The horn can be offered either with a beige or a black pair of Radian 951 adapters.

The horn is about 15 mm (0.59") thick and built with several materials that are both very stiff and lightweight. We used the Klipsch K-402 as a reference in the beginning and found the Klipsch to sound somewhat resonant compared to this. We believe this is a truly resonant free horn.
