marketing mixed with emotion and uniqueness.
Lacquer alone on the front baffle has an effect on sound, less deflections? But is black better? Had to be translated to an acoustic benefit apart from visual. I believe they sound good though.

Hi,
it is still refreshing though that still the big ones can create some ripples.
I had the chance to listen to the SSAR1 a couple of times. It is an amazing and demanding speaker, and less forgiving than its little brother the SSAR2. Japaneese always had the tendency to promote, in MHO rightly so, natural materials origined from their country.
