One hit manufacturer


I have noticed one manufacturer that sort of made a landing, especially in the number of reviews, but have since steadily died down in interest. ALOIA. Whatever happened to this manufacturer, who was hot just about one year ago, and now, it seems all of them have either been unloaded or presently being unloaded. Were its products overhyped or was the market not ready for a really, truly avantgarde design. Another manufacturer I can think fits in the category is Kora. Are there other manufacturers that would fit in this category. True one hit wonders or were they never meant to be.

Near they had a speaker called the 50ME II and they were pretty darn good- one of the first if not the first speaker to use metal coned drivers. They made a few other products but none ever really caught on like the 50ME II and then they were gone and you hear very little about them today.
Sean- Thanks for clearing up my confusion :)- there was something unusual about the metal driver that he used, any clue what it was? I know people always made a big deal about the 8" metal cone woofers that were used on that speaker. I don't have a much experience with the speaker's I just know a little history behind them as you can already tell.
