What are the current "speaker trends" in your opinions?


Be it cones, stats, horns, planers ...or whatever other technology, is there anything new/worthwhile out there?  I know that there was the AMT "air motion transformer" of the ESS days,etc.  Many technologies advance and sometimes refinements of existing technology is the mainstay.   I am not real current in my readings or notice of advertising/reviews and would appreciate anything readers can share.

New speakers keep coming out every year but in reality there is hardly any improvement and if there is it could be tiny.  Its all just mdf box + woofer + tweeter. Same recipe over and over again. Its all a sham in my opinion. 
The dutch and dutch is a horrible example of a good speaker. Good sound should be affordable to everyone. The dutch and dutch fail in that respect. In terms of sound quality, theyve cheated by using a lot of dsp to overcome problems that shouldn't be there in the first place.
