Are you open minded about loudspeaker designs?

Hey, as long as they're cone-type dynamic speakers, right Rcprince? :)

Rc, we all have our special needs, but I think I may get you to lean to the dark side yet. Hey, have you heard about that new woofer that looks like a heavy-duty table fan from Eminent Technology -- this may be the ticket to the best bass yet!!! I bet you could pressurize your whole house with one or two of those babies.

Johnk, I've tried speakers of all types, but lately I've been coming back to hybrid speakers that have ribbon midrange/tweeter sections and dynamic woofers. I just love the speed, detail, and airy quality of a well-designed ribbon. I like transparent, rock-solid bass too, but it doesn't have to challenge my foundation to be satisfying. Then again, if I could afford to repair my foundation and listening room from structural damage, I just might go in for some decent quality room-quaking subs. :)

Matrix, those Zu speakers look interesting, but they are not a crossoverless design. The super tweeter appears to cross at 12kHz at 6dB/octave, and there is undoubtedly a crossover to roll the rear subs off above 40Hz, as well. I don't know if the front-mounted drivers have a low-cut filter or not.
