    You know it mate.

    I'm always interested in speaker technology, that's what drew me towards MartinLogans a few years back - they amazed some non-audiophile friends, comments like "where does the sound come from then" and "how is it possible to see through them" etc etc.

    How about an A.O.S boys weekend to Nebraska to check out those babies of John's?

    Those speakers are certainly interesting, especially looking at that image of the prototype. I'm getting an idea that they could be like electrostats in presentation but I may be wrong.

    i hope john will elaborate a bit further, and maybe show some close ups,obviously without giving too much of the design away, for obvious reasons to john.

    Out of interest, what is the efficiency of these speakers?
