High-Efficiency Single Driver Speaker System
Nonoise there is a house sound in the PHY drivers of course and I'd rather have the 8" PHY driver over the Fostex but the 12" PHY driver is by far the best of these 3. 
High-Efficiency Single Driver Speaker System
There is such a HUGE difference between the 8" and 12" PHY driver IMO that I'd wait for the 12" to come-up if you can.Like Tonian Labs we also don't work any longer with PHY (Ocellia).(Dealer disclaimer)

Audioquest vs Acoustic Zen
Grey9hound....yes I have come to a conclusion but it's based on MY SYSTEM so it would be unfair to announce which was a winner. If you e-mail me privately I'd be more than happy to tell you what I heard.(Dealer disclaimer)
