Who makes a "true" Transmission Line speaker?...

Who makes a "true" Transmission Line speaker that displays some of the advantageous characteristics described in the previous threads regarding ported vs sealed vs TL? Does anyone make a true TL for under $10K? Who makes the best TL in your opinion and why?

Pat McGinty is a great designer. His speakers are well built and easy to drive. Meadowlarks are worth a listen.

Trelja- May I ask what models in the Usher line you got a listen to? I am going with a 6381 myself, as I hear great things about them. Thansk-Ken

If you have a chance, listen to Meadowlark Blue Heron II's. I have enjoyed mine for over a year--musical, plenty of bass, and easily driven. And Pat McGinty is great at answering questions in a timely manner: very knowledgable and friendly. Oh yes, and the cabinet-making is superb!

Trelja, I heard the Amygdala model at the 2002 CES. I enjoyed their sound. I hate using the term "musical", so let's just say that I hung around the Buggtussel room for a few songs, longer than in most other rooms!

The company people seemed to be quite informed as well as easy to talk with.

I was very impressed with the Fried TL's at the 2004 CES. Both fast and warm. Good qualities! Wanted to take them home.
