Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?

I understand that wood is cheap and a box is easier to make than a sphere but when the speaker companies charge tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars for their speakers, shouldnt consumers expect more than just a typical box? Are consumers being duped?

Back in the 70’s a speaker engineer found that a sphere was best for a speaker. A square box was the worst and a rectangular box was marginally better.

The speaker engineers have surely known about this research so why has it been ignored?

Cabasse is the only company doing spheres. Should wooden boxes be made illegal

"But the point is he did attempt to apply my technology"

Any real professional in this industry would not be boasting, putting piers down and lauding their accomplishments without a thread of proof. 

Your technology? Prove it, Kenjit. I say your a fraud ..

Prove it, Kenjit. I say your a fraud .. 

You can't expect any more proof from me than from any other speaker engineer. Can Andrew Jones PROVE that his Sourcepoint ten speakers are any better than the rest? Or is it really just another wooden box with drivers? Didn't Tannoy do a box just like that decades ago or have the audiophiles forgotten?

Again, only questions and no substance.

I have given plenty of pearls to the forum but they have all fallen on deaf ears. If you want better sound, you will need to get rid of those boxes Dill. That is the truth. If you dont like my nuggets I suggest you stop reading them.

"If you don’t like my nuggets I suggest you stop reading them"

Sorry, they don’t even reach the height of nuggets. More like droppings. Can you ever post anything without questions? It seems you need answers from the public to prove your position.
