Technics have been employing rectangular ABRs in a few of their speakers. Not heard any, but they are supposed to be decent.Quote:

Very rare and very good. ESS AMT1 Tower speakers. (Heil Air Motion Transformer)

I'd love these. I heard a pair years ago. They sounded amazing. The AMT unit gives superb mid and top and the transmission line cabinet produces some of the best bass I've heard.
I like AMT drive units, hence owning Mark & Daniels. No idea how their implementation would compare to these, though. Not going to dump 2K to find out.

S.
it's £2K per speaker and he has 4 speakers so £4k for a pair
At that price I'd want to see photographs that show a bit more than some knackered grille cloth.
