I'm not sure I've ever seen a driver like this, anyone (and you know who your are) care to explain the benefits of this thing?
It looks like they'll be some interesting stuff coming from Mark @ AV123 in the near future.

If I see correctly, they are using the "dual magnet" drive in the cheaper speaker but not the higher priced? That seems odd. Typically, placing anything that large in front of a smallish driver which works up into the midrange isn't a great idea due to reflections off the obstruction.
That's quite a power cable connector they've found. Audio bling!

Yes, Dr. Freud might have a thing or two to say about that cable connector.
I'm still not sure how you can hang a large magnet off a voice coil with no support other than the coil itself? |

Can someone explain how that magnet right in front of the cone doesn't mess up the dispersion of the sound waves? |
