I was watching "Ask Paul" videos this morning where Paul McGowan takes questions from listeners and tries, as best he can, to respond to their queries.
One question asked how important driver material is to the resultant sound of a particular speaker design. I mention this on this thread because his response, in part, may explain why a speaker such as the Double Impact can sound as good as many of you attest that it does ( I have not had the pleasure as of yet to hear any Tektons!) As Tektons do not employ "exotic" driver materials yet reportedly yield very satisfying sound quality, I think Paul’s video posted here may be of interest to you. Paul has no dog in this "what makes a speaker high-end" debate as he is not a speaker designer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ILbjs37Dr8
