| Thoughts for Future Speaker Designers Shoot, all he has to do is switch to electric motors. We have been filling speakers with acoustic cotton or poly for almost a century. Thoughts? The best enclosure is no enclosure ( except for subwoofers) | |

| How can Wilson Audio speakers sound that good if they are using OEM drivers? Sure soundwise if all you want is volume and are not interested in an image they are fabulous. Sixty years ago the most powerful amplifier made was 70-75 watts/ch and you needed something like the K horn if you wanted to attain realistic levels. | |

| Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them? simonmoon, it also helps if you add mass to the top of the speaker. I made lead caps for my Maggies back in the 80's by melting fishing weights into a form. My 2+2's have a 1/4 inch thick steel plate embedded in the top. They came with a 1/8" thic... | |
