Are advances in technology making speakers better?

Love this thread, talk that makes sense. No endless dribble about cables and bye Products that really mean nothing. The meat and potatoes of a system…speakers. I’ve a late model IRS system that’s been refurbished to spec and beyond, still a very big player. If you’ve the space for big go big, age means nothing IMO. A lot of trinkets and junk out there filling in the void of real technology, and sadly systematically filling manufacturers pockets with the Gullible‘s money.

Yes speaker cabinets made out of High-Graphite Cast Iron ! 

All New JERN 35 Monitors that has a bass output down to 30 Hz from a very small speaker !

I can relate, I have had the Evoke 20s for a year and a half and I couldn't be happier! Pure magic.

@grislybutter you know what's funny? I posted about my experience on Excite vs Evoke and someone replied "maybe the name of the lines is even more appropriate than it would seem". BRILLIANT observation! I found that to be incredibly ironic and insightful! AND TRUE😁!

So maybe I can upgrade my B&w 802 d3 to d4.  Not sure they're all that much better but I may do it.  Hate getting rid of the d3 speakers, maybe I can put them in the back of the room as rare speakers.
