While browsing for a pair of Emilar EH500 horns, I found those and almost choked.
"100% authentic"
Yup. The horn is missing a huge chunk and is pretty much useless

Some welding required!
You know I know a guy who said he knows the guy who ownes the molds to those horns and once in a while they supposedly make small production runs of them. I have asked about them on occasion but nothing ever comes of it. Should I ask again?
I have a pair of these and while I don't think they are remarkable, they sound better than a lot of the horns I have had hence the reason I still have them.
If we knew what the hell we were doing, we wouldn't call it research would we.
The emilar 500 seems to be a nice 500Hz short throw horn of relatively compact size. I've seen it used for some studio monitoring. Interinstingly, the used prices range from low $50/pair to as high as $500.... Go figure.
They F'ed those up LOL!
I have a pair of the 1" version, I think they are similar anyway. The ones that look like a clown's mouth.
They are 100% authentic, just not 100% complete....
Sad thing is some poor soul will buy those thinking it's legit. Seller should be flagged.
I got a reply
Yeah whatever, I sent him a link to pics of a intact set of horns.Dear mil_on,
NOT CUT OFF. THEY ARE ORIGINAL JUST LIKE THAT.
THANKS

Could very well have been taken from a cabinet in that state.
Custom sound companies do all kinds of things that seem odd out of context.
That said, the units are certainly a modified version, whether Emilar sanctioned it or not.
I think most folks looking specifically for EH500 type horns would know that these are ...
incomplete or modified for special use.
I would be surprised if they eventually sold for 1/10 the asking price, but I've been surprised many times
