Battle of the Open Baffles


Watching Jay's video today about the Maco Acoustics speakers, and saw the Caladan's late last year.  Seems like open baffle death match is brewing...

I think the Linkwitz full 521.4 system would rival anything available anywhere but they do take a lot of space to sound their best. I have great interest but dont have the floor space available.

I do have a pair of Spatial X5's and for the money they are a sonic bargain.

After hearing some open baffle a friend has, seeing Ron's video on the Caladans, hearing the Caladans at CAP, and talking to Clayton, my pair is on order.  I'm excited to jump into the OB world.  I run KEF, Mission, Elac, and Emotiva speakers now.  This will be a new world/sound for me.

For around a grand you can get a great sounding open baffle speaker that uses the Lii 15 in. driver. www.caintuckaudio.com      Randy is a great guy to work with.

Pure Audio Projects are awesome. I was at a club gathering a few years ago where the guys from PAP, Hattor, and Lampizator were demoing their gear. I heard the Trio with the voxitiv field coils driven by a Lampi Integrated, not on the market, and the Pacific DAC. Wonderful setup.
