Looking for the next best thing? Underground welco

I would like to know if anyone can recommend any loudspeakers that are so called off the beaten path. I am very aware of the Zu and Gallo and B&W and JmLab and Vons and Ushers and Hyperion etc, and would like to know if you could recommend the next best thing in technology advancement that most people have not written so much about. Its obvious that the flavor of the month club is always writing about the current best thing. I am looking for interesting new technology that is not so written about and your underground types that may be the next greatest. Thanks>> Bill

Hi Joman,

Thanks for the kind words. I think some extra keystrokes may have crept into your last line - perhaps what you meant to say was "Duke is also a human being."

I have one pair of my speakers in the basement right now, so does that qualify as "underground"??

Also, I'm advertising 'em here and at Audio Circle - that alone probably qualifies 'em as "underground". The "innovative" part - well, I'd probably need to hire a better marketing department before I could get that claim to really stick (though I think the claim is at least made in my propaganda). If nothing else, my designs are off the beaten path a bit.

Well if Montana speakers are off the beaten path then I must suggest the Vandersteen Quatro and 5A speakers, no baffle, time and phase correct, powered woofers and 11 band bass tuning to maximize most room situations.
When you stack all of that into one real world priced speaker then I think that fits just fine into the off the beaten path suggestions.
