Art Dudley Calls B.S. but without naming names - PLEASE DO!
DeVore a great value? Compared to what? Vandersteen? Magnepan? Tekton? I know that he wants to reward sponsors with good publicity, but it's a slippery slope and he lost me at Kimber.  
Magnepan 30.7’s
Here is an originally priced 30k planar if you can’t wait. https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/ele/6576314570.html 
Magnepan 30.7’s
I have a feeling that these won’t be very profitable to make, but a true flagship creates a halo effect on the rest of the lineup.  
Magnepan 30.7’s
Glad to hear they are still in business 😂 
single driver speakers
This is the speaker for those who need more dynamics/SPL.The Super Alnico High Output is not a 2 way design, but a 1.5 way design.What separates it from a 2 way design?The drivers are identical exept for the dustcap of the low frequency (LF) drive... 
single driver speakers
Really nice cabinets but 35k drivers on those? These are outliers for sure so I wouldn’t make too many generalizations based upon them.  
Why Aren't More Speaker Designers Building Augmented Widebanders?
Another good design is the Silverline Minuet Supreme. 3.25 inch woofer crossed to the tweeter @3500hz. The little woofer can play very high and the tweeter only comes on for the highest notes, delivering the airy and delicate top end that a wideba...

Here is a widebander that I think has push and pull....push because most speaker buyers aren't thinking widebander....pull because its got good reviews, budget price and support by decware...i haven't pulled (no pun intended) the trigger yet but I...

Gee...I wonder???? Henry Kloss had a classic quote "A Two way speaker is a good way to stay out of trouble" a no crossover speaker may be even better if well executed  Andrew Jones is quoted as saying, "The best two way speaker is a three way sp...

Not many folks realize this, but you can stick a $50 wide band driver on a 48x60 inch piece of plywood (with just a hole cut for the driver) and get mind blowing good sound from a current source amp...and if you use the right driver you can get ba...

Many of the most popular designs deal with the 2k crossover challenge in different ways. You may not realize it, but you are hearing the challenges of a crossover in the presence region.It expresses itself as a lack of coherence, which can be disc... 
New Speakers ... Can't Stop "Listening"
I would love to hear this JA Seas Kit compared to the Silverline 17 Supreme that uses Dynaudio's top shelf tweet and mid-woof. Two great designers competing at the same price point.    
Is the 2.5 way speaker the ideal home speaker?
Usually higher tweeter points are achieved with 3-way systems which use a "true" midrange. Best,EOr a small woofer like the Silverline Minuet Supreme. 3.5k crossover point giving way to a beautiful midrange.  
Paypal issue beware.
I call they said because he used some sort of mandated government payment they do not require any evidence that it was shipped back. What type of payment is this?By chance was the buyer Ben Carson?  
Schiit not that Good?
The best sounding rooms were either only lightly treated with ASC, or used other brands of room acoustic treatment entirely. I would put that up above cables as being the cause first. Best,EI don't know E. Maybe speakers might be the cause first? ...
