Ok, but does your audio gear have rotons (metamaterials)?


Not yet. But get ready for the LS50 Meta Meta.

"A group of researchers is working on metamaterials that "grow" rotons. Metamaterials exhibit optical, acoustic, electrical, or magnetic properties that are not found in nature.…Thus, it might be possible in the future to better manipulate sound waves in air or in materials, for example, to bounce them back, redirect them, or create echoes. These materials have not been demonstrated experimentally yet; however, it should be possible to produce them by using technologies such as ultra-precise 3D laser printing." https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/06/210610135559.htm

@asctim....HO, I think it'll be while before Active Roton Dispersion Arrays for audiophile purposes may be available.  And I'd wager that speaker tech might have to respond in some fashion to make it a real thing...

...an acoustic hologram of sorts, without bathing in lasers....  "Nice, but gives me a sunburn of sorts....OMFG, my ears have burnt off ! ? !"

Ti is nice, but yes, pricey.  There may be a lot of it, but its' nature makes it hard to process anything out of it for use on or in anything.  I have 2mm sheet that one can cut with scissors, but has an edge like a razor blade....  Folds crisp, but one shot is all you get at it.
@avsjerry-     "...happy you're happy with 'Enter'...;)  But many problems stem from PEBKAC....*G*."
   
            In my case: it's NLBK (Nut Loose Behind Keyboard)!
@tomic601 -    "I also believe my point about “ large “ was also made in Animal House. Veggie aisle, … say no more…."  

     My favorite place for cucumber, is in a Middle Eastern restaurant.   NO: not in the Belly Dancer (you sick puppy).   The tzatziki!
   
     Sadly: mine is the only part of my body, I haven't (yet) outlived, but now: have no where to put!  

                                                                    FIGURES!




@asctim-    Ti is also very difficult to machine, must be machined slowly, requires special/expensive tooling and wears that tooling, very quickly.  
 
                   Great stuff, when you can use it!
Ah, that variation of the NBW; Nut Behind Wheel.....

Well, all that can happen here is to crash the 'puter....on a physical level of sorts, anyway.  Software, reboot.....
