They look amazing....if you like speakers the size of a small shed in your livingroom! ;-)
As a design the Jubilee’s are much more interesting to me compared to the DD67000 Everest’s. Basic physics, really; the Jub’s are (more appropriately) taller, their midrange/HF horn is somewhat bigger to actually support directivity control lower in frequency and down to the cross-over to the LF section, which would also result in a sonically bigger sphere and more relaxed presentation, and not least the Jub’s are horn-loaded in their entire frequency spectrum to aid a higher efficiency (even though they use a peculiar LF horn loading of not only the front wave of the driver inside, but as well a ported section of its backwave) and more proper match with the MF/HF horn above. When you factor in that the Jub’s come in below half the price of the Everest and are an active design to boot, the choice to me is clear.
I find these fascinating, as I do with any potential "end game" speaker

at 30k+ I think they should have just gone all in a bit further and improved the esthetics starting with a better looking horn, maybe wood?

I wonder who their target market is also.  I also question if we're in diminishing returns territory against Klipschorns

very cool to me that a company can embrace modern and old school tech
