The Search

It is over for me. Speakers that are good enough for extensive use in many of the world's top recording and mastering studios, are certainly more than good enough for me.

Onh, I've only tried the Thor. I have plans to add the Tyler 3 ways which will give me slight more bottom end, sometime next yr, maybe later this yr. If there is something Hopefully Ty has the 3 way voiced the way i prefer. I may ask him to put in all premium parts in the xovers. Hovland Musicaps etc. No bars hold.
I think Seas' has put everything they built up in research over the past 30 yrs and this is their "baby". IOW's Excel 2's may be some time off. In fact I'd bet if I wrote them that question the answer would be "upgrade not anytime soon" and they'd ask "why, anything wrong with your Excel sound?" ...me "no, just being stupidly curious"
So far no driver I've heard has equaled the Seas.
I see someone has mentioned on my speakers for tube topic that tubes loves horns.
I've not heard a good horn speaker. I think that may be of interest to me. However that design I believe can be expensive. Out of my reach, still I'd love to hear a horn speaker.
Looking at the pic of a Excel is not the same as holding one in your hands.

Tro....is right!

Burt...I mean Bart....that's like Simpson right?

I just have one question...why was it necessary to change your agon SN?

well...2 questions.

After people make you look like a fool over and over...are you gonna change it again?

Tarsndo, Zaikesman, and I guess Ellery911 as well, Give Bartockfan a break! Everybody gets lonely from time to time and the 'net makes you feel like you are communicating with someone. Even negative feedback is better than none at all, it proves someone is listening or at least reading your posts. I just hate it when folks ignore my musings.

Think how tough it would be if everyone ignored him. He'd probably stop posting and go over to AA or somewhere, or really do something drastic. Oh, you say he's been to AA before and no longer posts there. Come to think of it I do recall an unregistered poster in the Speaker forum making a fool of himself. Name was Paul and he was from LA somewhere. Could that have been our Bartockfan...nah, that guy was over-the-top rude and deceptive, not just inexperienced and uninformed. Really made an ass of himself. He was wasn't even registered and he psyudo'd up another poster's moniker and posted on his 'behalf' stuff which the other guy would never have said. But that wouldn't have been our Bartockfan, I'm sure....

Just think on it Ellery, if he is immune to insults and keeps reading responses, he might learn something and become a valuable contributor. Just might.....
What's that you say about Porky becoming an aviator?
