Its just that none, zero , of the commercial speakers interest me.
So that is why I had to design my own speaker, w/o any advice, suggestions, ideas from my tech geek nor anyone here on audiogon.
I had to make my own design, nilly willy, for the good or the bad.
Tried this, that, then swaped out that, for this, and so on.
Til finally i have pretty much my Final Speaker til death.
You could not even give me a speaker to replace my own design.
You may not like it, but thing is , its my music, my ears, and this speaker is as close to my perfect ideal of how a speaker should voice.
Again, you might say ***THAT!!**
And I will respond, Its as close to my hopes of speaker nirvana, more than I could ever expect.
Each person has to come to his own ideas/experiences of how he wishes his ideal speaker to voice.
I have plans to add a DL8, the white cone wide band
Will bea shootout twix the
DL 6.5 Neodymium
vs
DL 8/Ferrite magnet weighing in at a blsitering 8 lbs!!!!!!!!!, Woden cone
One heck of a shootout.
One or the other will be champ of wide bands.
My guess is I'll like things about both and so keep both. Swap out, depends on the music selection.
Sort of adding spice and variety.
So like yeah, my speaker is all original, my ideas, no one elses.
