Here is a room measurement. Click to enlarge. This was a measure of an earlier version of P4.
This is just a shadow of how it will perform. Remember this is still an early prototype.

Here is an article I think you will all be interested in. These researchers do not have a connection to me.
I have corresponded with Mr. Earl Geddes and discussed his research on perception of distortion.
After you read about his research I believe you'll see that my invention is the embodiment of his findings.

Planot(R) speaker update...
The US Patent and Trademark Office awarded me a patent for my diaphragm design in December of 2010. # 7860265
I have been talking with many manufacturers but I can not yet announce a product on the market. The May issue of Voice Coil Magazine featured the Planot speaker in a cover article. That article resulted in more manufacturer contacts. *Voice Coil editor Vance Dickson has agreed to review a prototype when I have one ready to ship.
A press release in 6moons.com has boosted monthly traffic on my Web site by thousands of visits. 6moons's , Srajam Ebaen, has agreed to review a Planot prototype, as soon as I have review units available. I have posted Google Analytics traffic data on my site.
People have been requesting I publish measurements for some time. I have now published frequency and phase measurements on my Web site.*
Again, if you are interested in speakers utilizing Planot technology contact manufacturers and tell them, you encourage them to investigate licensing Planot technology.
I am working with companies to produce a supply of voice coils and magnets and I will be making new motors based on a proprietary design. The motor contributes a significant amount to response and efficiency.
Thanks for your interest,
John J. Gaudreault
