Single driver point source speakers vs. the world?

Wow!

Now If only i had kept my 12 inch coaxial Richard Allen's back in 1976 instead of going backwards and replacing them with a lower distortion higher output multi-driver speaker system ...

What was i thinking .............. :)

Everything is about price vs Performance and maybe at the prices one can purchase a single driver loudspeaker system today, makes them a good buy.

That in itself is not an endorsement of single driver topology, unfortunately it is a sad reminder of how much current day speaker manufacturers are failing ......

Weseixas why come to audiogon at all? You have no feedback offer no financial support for this site. Yet you feel free to troll post over and over. Seems you have issues with personality wish I could help.

Hope this doesn't stray too far off topic, but that never seems to stop anyone anyway : )

I mentioned in an earlier post that I received my first single driver speakers (albeit with a super tweeter) a couple of weeks ago. One of the things that appeals to me is that it allows a very straight signal path. I have 7 components (not counting wires and room) in the path from the output of my CDP to my ears: 1. Amp selector switch; 2. volume with discrete resistors; 3. pentode driver; 4. coupling cap; 5. 2A3 triode; 6. OPT; 7. Fostex driver.
I'm not saying it's the only or even best way, but it's interesting enough to me that I want to explore and see what I can get out of it. I'm still getting things in order, but so far I like the music.

JohnK,

Sorry to hear about your disorder, best of luck and get well soon ...
