Any Large Acoustic Suspension Speakers Being Made?
dweller,you did not realize this at the time but you were ahead of the game when you had that eureka moment listening to the SC IVA speakers. The sonics from that speaker had less to do with the drivers being acoustic suspension & had a lot to...

I am not going to slander anybody as it is illegal. But this is an audio forum where audiophiles are free to express their opinions. Its not just just compliments, we need to hear complaints as well. I will make sure everything I say respects the ...
