What Do You Think . . . and How Does It Work?


While watching vids on YouTube, I came across this pipe speaker design from a Dr. Linkwitz (see below).   The sound of this speaker is said to be impressive.  I was wondering if you know about this, how it works and what you think of this speaker design.  Also, what do you think would be the best room placement for such a speaker, and would you be tempted to build them?

As evidenced in your many posts, however, you are not remotely qualified, to evaluate how well a speaker works, or does not work just by "looking at it". You don’t appear to have even the most rudimentary understanding from where I am sitting.  That may be harsh, but how else am I supposed to say it. There are any number of ways that audiokinesis could have addressed the issue, and buyers always have the option not to buy.


I have circumstancial evidence by looking at the picture of the audiokinesis speaker. I have no reason to believe there is some elaborate method hidden inside the box that mounts the driver differently than the usual way. I have also seen pictures of many other high end speakers that just screw their drivers in and call it a day. I have no reason to believe otherwise with this speaker.

The onus of proof is on the manufacturer. Im not the manufacturer.
We have been taken for a ride long enough. The time has come for the tables to turn. They have got away with unverified claims for too long.

Above, Kenjit is trying to bait me into defending my speaker. To anyone wondering why I don’t take up the challenge, let me point out that what Kenjit is doing is a classic behavior of a narcissist: Baiting people into defending themselves in an unwinnable argument.  Narcissists like to be on the offensive. 

Kenjit’s technique for turning every discussion into an argument and then winning that argument is to be contemptuous and dismissive of the other person and whatever information or evidence they present. When only his statements are valid and only his evidence is admissible, the outcome of the argument is a foregone conclusion.  

If anyone other than Kenjit is actually curious about the questions he raises, let me know and I will reply to you. Otherwise, imo this thread is about one of Siegfried Linkwitz’s designs, not one of mine.

They put a lot of effort into it, although ultimately seem to get something out of it useful only to themselves.
Ah, you mean the old "gk" maneuver!  It is often hard to tell the difference between a narcissist and a plain old bully, but most bullies are narcissists.

I plead guilty. I bait heaudio into unwinnable arguments. I have assured him I’ll let him win one sometime, just to keep him in the game. I have to have my fun, too.
