Obscure companies making excellent speakers?


Found on the forum names of speaker manufacturers unfamiliar to me that supposedly are using new technologies or designs and as a result are making big impressions on fellow goners. Would like to see a list of these young and not so young companies that otherwise fly under the radar because advertisement just too expensive or not viable.

Mehrakrishan, no field coil speaker is going to be inexpensive. The reason the permanent magnet speakers showed up decades ago is that they are cheaper to make!

The High Emotion Audio speaker is easy to drive but it is not considered high efficiency, like you often need for an SET. PHY makes a great set of drivers that are full-range and high efficiency, you might also investigate Fertin Acoustic drivers, many of which are field-coil.
has anybody heard sculpture horn speaker by CH audio with magnet speaker or field coil drivers
Eventus Audio that uses their SACC (Simulated Anechoic Cabinet Construction) Technology. I have a pair of Phobos and they are absolutely fantastic. Paird up with a Pass Lab amp, and you have a really open soundstage.
Bamberg Engineering Sound Lab

Lenehan Audio

I own a pair of PBN Montana XPs. All the above, including Reynaud and Selah speakers previously mentioned are currently on my radar screen to replace my second system.
I've heard the new Bamberg speaker on several occasions. It has extraordinary performance and value. I must disclose it now uses ClarityCaps in crossover as OEM'd by my agency.
