All New Totaldac D100 Loudspeakers....The HOLY GRAIL OF SPEAKERS ?!
Those look like 1970 speakers. Out dated. sorry been there done that.The new Tech are Full range Neodymium magnets/alnico magnets  and Full Range Field CoilPricey as heck, but when we are talking <<best>> gotta pay the piper.  
Speaker Upgrade Recommendation for Current Analog System - under $10,000 Budget
IF,, and thatsa  BIG IF, I had $10K, (which i never will have :--(((, a  Field Coil Full Range, no doubt about it.  
The Sound of Speaker.
I’m pretty fond of ring and domes too ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~For my full orchestra and other huge sound stage music like  big jazz bands, I've found all domes to be rather limited.I mean what range do these tweeters produce? Midrange - highs. Th... 
The Sound of Speaker.
As my journey has ended at a Horn-speaker. Horns are high sensitivty, Excellent for midrange/low mids, all ranges of highs,,Not so much for real bass at 40hz-60hzHere is where you will needa  midrange woofer.Thus point is, Horns are really only... 
Holographic Soundstage ?
We have diverged far off the OP Q.What makes 3D? If a  speaker has no potential for fidelity soundstage, it makes no difference what amp/source you use.If its not there, it aint there.Rake a  Jadis JA800, hook it up to B7W,, The Jadis will sound l...

Caveat:The Seas midtweets are acceptable for light jazz, \Not for complex jazz ensembles nor full orchestra.  
Holographic Soundstage ?
Seas Excel dome tweets The Millennium and their new flagship Cresendo are rated 87db, Thats 5db too low. I'm sure the new Cresendo beats out the Millennium, but not enough to give a  cigar.For voicing mids/highs witth a  ~~3 dimensional soundstage...

millercarbon9,062 posts04-30-2021 12:47pmYour speakers at 91dB are not awful but are below my (admittedly totally arbitrary) cutoff of 92dB that anyone should consider before buying any speaker ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~As you know i’ve also made this ve... 
Holographic Soundstage ?
I always found imaging was more a function of the speakers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Supporting my thesis ~~The Speaker is the most critical component~~~I just removed the fluffy white insulation that came with the Thor MTM kit, which Ricahrd Gray made... 
Speakers most critical component, , now what fq's are most critical in speakers
The above speaker sounds superior than the actual recording in the studio itself. Better than live, Hows that for full range magic.IOW the speaker sounds superior to the artist voice. The speaker can sing better than this female vocalist. 
Speakers most critical component, , now what fq's are most critical in speakers
ONly a FR can voice orchestra/complex jazz with success in the mids/highs. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Not only Full Orchestra/complex jazz, But also no other speaker in the universe can voice female jazz vocals like a  New High Tech Full Range, whether it... 
Best Midbass woofer for solid 30hz - 2khz
so like what would you prefera   woofer that goes down to 20hz-40hzOR a   woofer that *Only* goes as far as 40hz, but voices the 40-1500 with purity/fidelity???I know which I would prefer,I have lost all interest in seeking 20hz-40hz'sas in our mu... 
Would you buy a piece of gear with a defect?
A new JC2 BP is like 4500. If you were patient, a used one could come up at some point for 2500-3000. 1500 for a broken unit is a little high for me. You have no idea what is wrong. It could be something cheap or extremely expensive. ~~~~~~~~~...

Another Chinese scenario: Typically, shipping from China is dirt cheap on many items because the Chinese government provides free or next to free shipping for their exports On items weighta  few onzes, shipping is free/cheap like $1But on amps ... 
Warning: China-Hifi-Audio.com
Having ordered from China before (Not Audio), I am astounded that the $595 shipping charge did not seem excessive or bogus. ~~~ Not true at all. Shipping fro china fees has sky rocketed, and dealers are not making a  profit,,maybe some are disc...
