The LM-22A Alto Horn is a midrange horn from Line Magnetic, sold as a separate unit for builders of horn loudspeaker systems. Line Magnetic specialises in recreating classic Western Electric designs, and the 22A follows the pattern of the vintage theatre horn of the same name.
Key specs that matter
The horn covers a passband of 150 Hz to 13 kHz. Its dispersion is 20 degrees horizontally and 40 degrees vertically, giving a narrow, controlled pattern. Line Magnetic states the LM-22A is compatible with all drivers, meaning it is not tied to one specific compression driver from the catalogue.
Pairing
As a bare horn, the LM-22A has to be combined with a compression driver, a bass section and a suitable crossover, so it suits DIY and custom system projects rather than ready-made loudspeaker buyers.
