Seas Magnesiums in them (Tyler Acoustics Super Tower) which exhibited the same coloration. Clearly representative of the driver.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yes Tyler and Joseph Audio, both employ the Magnesium midwoofers.
Coloration??
Did you read the link review I posted above.
3rd indepentent party, unbiased, down to earth review of the Seas Thors.
Sure SB Acoustics makes some beautiful speakers
No doubt, Scan speak as well.
Troels Gravesen employs all 3 and others.
He only uses the best drivers.
Look I should recant at least part of what i said above.
But not all.
Xover types are doable, if you are willing to accept their inner weaknesses and faults.
If low sens speakers define high fidelity in your music, great, , I guess its your free choice.
My purpose of this topic is to point out how superior high sens (=92db++) are for classical music, which are hidden many nuances low sens speakers miss out.
Jazz music as well is much more enjoyable overa a high sens WBer.
Transforms jazz into a magical experience.
.
Look if the Focals, KEF's, Vandersteens, Wislon;'s were as special as you suggest, why do folks dump them on the used market all the time?
And why can't you guys get a consensus on which are winners, and which are losers.
You guys have been promoting your own specail house sound speaker, where others are pumping their special flavor.
All low sens speakers have serious inner flaws, that need very expensive, complex xovers to attempt to correect these weaknesses
,
Quite a few tech geeks have already exposed the blantant ugly flaws in xovers, these gadgets suck the life out the musical source..,,,and really can not fix the low sens handicap.
Thiels, too flawed, B&W's the worst.
Your camp can't decide on any 1 xover type that can compete with the 2 wide bands above.
While us WBer cult, we know what we have, and never even consider going back to the xover low sens speakers.
Been there done THAT.
For Rock, R&B , yeah box speakers will work just fine, No special nuances required.
