Hey K.....tt, Do you even have speakers??

So, by extension, as speakers are made of a handful of materials, what is the ideal material the oh enlightened one?

While at one time a few years ago I was up to almost 150 pairs, I am now hoarding about 50 pairs. Ten pairs are set up in six rooms plus front yard and back yard. I still have the second pair of speakers that I bought, JBL L-150s from Illinois Audio in Downers Grove (IIRC). The first pair were passed along to a buddy who kept them for almost forty years. I’ve tried 15-20 brands over the years. There was a much greater jump in sound quality from the hifi consoles of the fifties to those JBL L-150s of 1976 than in the 43 years since, IMO. Many of the speakers that I bought in the 80s, 90s, 00s are long gone, but what appears to be my ending collection of setup speakers (given my age and health) isn’t far removed from starting point. I’ve gotten a tremendous amount of enjoyment out of almost all of them and am now almost completely free of the itch to buy anything else. I don’t believe I would be able to make any significant improvements over what I have now.  After almost 50 years, wife still hasn’t complained.

Carpathian,  I’d be interested in hearing what you have.  Anyone who’s owned so many has to have accumulated a lot of knowledge about them...

Actually...as little as possible....radical, Yes. *G*

And what there is of it...is PVC....foamed sheet, aka Sintra.

Yes, I can hear you snicker....but, then again...I'm Not building boxes....;)

Consider the current Ohm speakers....

Now

Throw the cabinet away....*S*
