RE: Loudspeakers - why so ugly!

Sure, how about horns as they are generally used in hifi or the use of exotic materials used in hifi speakers while ignoring how sound propagates or the "Russian doll" nature of wavelengths spanning from 5/8 inch to >50 feet.

In every area of sound reproduction the generation loss test was an audible indicator of how faithful a device is to the input signal yet most loudspeakers fail miserably at just one generation, few go two or three before sounding dreadful.
They are the weakest link by far.
Best,
Tom
