How much are these ? I don’t see any specs on these or if they are in the U.S.

@sc2 , thanks for the links, it's always interesting to perhaps get a peek at the next great thing.  Later on we get to make the call on whether or not to take a pair home with any true believers...;)
Granted. the presenter seem definitely out of his element, and the demo came off not blowing my socks anywhere.  As to where and how much?  Please stand by, I guess...

There's something about the physics of it that bug me.  That it rivals in some ways the complexity of a MBL which may have promise the demo didn't exhibit.
Oh, well....watch the stars, see how they run...🤷‍♂️

I think I'll keep playing about with my Heils' and diy Walsh drivers...but, thanks again. *S* 

Not a 'bot, still....

One thing for sure, not only fails WAF, also fails HAF and any other AF. Those are clinically fugly on a new scale.

The Airblades are a variation of the Heil AMT (Air Motion Transformer) design.  In the '70's I owned a pair of ESS AMT-1B speakers that used a Heil AMT speaker as the midrange and tweeter.  It also had a 12" woofer and 12" passive radiator. Check out the below link. I paid $700 back in the '70's. The Heil AMT sounded great. The cabinet for the woofer and radiator was the weak link.
