That little 'un is mad - the lower tweeter is great to 28KHz, yet they've put a jangling scan-squeak 8KHz resonator above it................
Ashley said one brilliant thing on HDD recently - why not re-introduce ELLIPTICAL drivers again. The EMI unit from the 1960's was apparently very good indeed for its era and the KEF B139 was a very good bass unit as long as it was crossed over below 450 Hz, where it had a resonance I understand. With modern materials and CAD design, this could answer a lot of problems to do with radiating area........
I can't go on and I can't go back, I don't feel so matter of fact,
I tried and tried to make good sense, What's the good to try it all again?
