    Impressive!

On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

    The DIY attempt is amazing...

    Interesting to see the internal foam damping on the "petal" drivers. There's a whole shed load of it. Kind of amazed they sound as good as they do with the amount used, especially on the smaller mid and HF drivers.

    Makes sense why the foam is there, to stop those petals from resonating. Nice video like seeing the handmade crafts.

    Thanks Justin.
    It's fascinating to see that midrange driver being put together while listening to a pair of them
