There's an ad for them in an old April 2000 maggie here that gives the
following info:

JT Horn Loudspeakers
4 Datchet Close,
Littleover,
Derby,
DE23 7SQ

Tel/Fax 01332 512510

No idea if any of it is still valid, though....

(Looks like a 'cottage industry' builder of Lowther cabinet designs
fitted with DX3 drive units!)

With your experience of horns - would an enclosure of that size allow horn
loading down to 30 Hz? Only ones I've had were Tannoy corner horns and
very much larger - and they used the walls as part of the horn.

Wouldn't like to say - on paper possibly, but all these
'backhorn-loaded' designs seem to rely on placement for their 'bottom
end' in reality....

It's a small world! Turns out the Lowthers my mate Tone the Clone bought
a while back are the same thing - I've just got in to this email:

"The Vitali has arrived today, so will have a listen tomorrow and if you
are about later will bring it round for a listen, also the speakers in
the link below are the same as mine but a proper finished version but
with a different drive unit, I have emailed the seller and have asked if
he has more details on the makers as I`d like to know a bit more about
them. Will watch and see anyway. Still off to darts now so no time to
listen but will see how it fares later. I`l give you a call tomorrow.

Cheers Tony

I never made the connection - his are in an *unfinished* state (no
grilles, no veneer), but now that I look again, I can see they are the
same shape!! I'll have to see if I can record summat from them!

('Vitali' = Croft Vitale, btw...)
