Salk shows up at events, they had three sets of speakers at AXPONA. Daedalus was in at least two rooms. Prana was in one. Dennis Murphy who runs Philharmonic has been at Capital Audio Fest and some of the other shows in the past, but he's essentially a one-man operation and it's a lot of work to prepare for a big show.
Dennis uses Parts Express cabinets for some of his speakers, and off-the-shelf drivers, but designs his own crossovers, which is what he's really known for (he's developed them for many of Salk's speakers as well) and does offer custom cabinets for those who want to pay the difference.
Some of the Parts Express cabinets are well-built and well-finished, so I don't fault a company for using them, especially if it allows for a lower cost for the buyer or more money to go into quality drivers and crossover components.
Salk's Song3As at Axpona paired up with Schitt electronics sounded incredible, one of the best sounding rooms at the show when value is included in the equation.
